I have been trying to install IMAP php extension to php7 but Im unable to find how to guide.

What I have done is try to use imap_php.sh and what I get is this error


configure: error: Cannot find imap library (libc-client.a). Please check your c-client installation.

The urls was wrong so I found a new url, so I change the script and here's the new one.

The added this to configure.php* located at /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/configure/fpm you need to add this to all the php v files that you want to enable php-imap.

--with-imap=/usr/local/php-imap \
--with-imap-ssl \


After that you need to rebuild you php

go to /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild

Execute command

./build php n

Then I get this error:

configure: error: Cannot find imap library (libc-client.a). Please check your c-client installation.

*** There was an error while trying to configure php. Check the configure file

I did change tis

--with-imap=/usr/local/php-imap \
--with-imap-ssl \

To this

--with-imap= \
--with-imap-ssl \


Still get the same error.

configure: error: Cannot find imap library (libc-client.a). Please check your c-client installation.

Then I installed yum install libc-client-devel

Same still getting error.

Thanks
 
Hello,

Try:

Code: 
yum -y install libc-client libc-client-devel uw-imap-static-2007f uw-imap-devel-2007f-4.el7.1.x86_64


ln -s /usr/lib64/libc-client.a /usr/lib/libc-client.a
ln -s /usr/lib64/libc-client.so /usr/lib/libc-client.so

ldconfig


then build PHP.

We use this for CentOS 7 (uw-imap-static is not available in yum):

Code: 
cd /usr/local
wget -O imap-2007f.tar.gz https://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/ftp.cac.washington.edu/imap/imap-2007f.tar.gz
tar xvzf imap-2007f.tar.gz
cd imap-2007f
make lr5 EXTRACFLAGS=-fPIC
mkdir lib
mkdir include
cp c-client/*.c lib/
cp c-client/*.h include/
cp c-client/c-client.a lib/libc-client.a

add to configure.php*:

--with-imap-ssl \
--with-imap=\/usr\/local\/imap-2007f \
 
It is possible that your "=" sign on this line causes the configure script to not look in the right place. Try to remove the "=".

Code: 
        --with-imap= \

This is the EPEL repo, which is not installed on CentOS by default.
 
Yes, that's true. If you don't like it, you are free not to use it. For those who wants it, they can use it.:D
