Hi All,
I thought I'd share my experience setting up the Phalcon extension with custombuild 2.0 using the different php versions available as I had a few issues getting it all working and it may help others with phalcon or installing other php extensions as it turned out to be quite simple once you know what to do.
So first thing to note is you don't need to install php5-dev etc like it says in the install instructions.
To start. Download the repo to the location of your choice.
At this point we need to make a tweak to the installer script to point to our php version. In this example I'll be applying to php 5.3
Then edit the install file and change the end line from.
to
The key in this being the command --with-php-config=/usr/local/php53/bin/php-config where php53 would be php54 or php55 etc for other installations
Now you can run ./install53 to compile and install the extension into the right directory.
Finally add the module to your php configuration. I used the following command.
