Installing php datastax driver on ubuntu
The following steps worked for me. YMMV.
$ uname -a
3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.68-1+deb7u3 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Install some prereqs (removed libuv-dev
from the list):
$ sudo apt-get install g++ make cmake libssl-dev libgmp-dev php5 php5-dev openssl libpcre3-dev
Trying to install libuv-dev
right now will result in the following error:
libuv depends on libc6 (>= 2.14); however: Version of libc6:amd64 on system is 2.13-38+deb7u8.
Wheezy seems to have a slightly older version of libc6
. Step up to Jessie to get 2.14. Add the following to /etc/apt/sources.list
:
deb ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/ jessie main
deb-src ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/ jessie main
After running the following commands, these services will be restarted: mysql, exim4, cups, cron, atd, apache2
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install libc6
$ sudo apt-get -f install
Download and install the following files:
$ wget http://downloads.datastax.com/cpp-driver/ubuntu/14.04/libuv_1.6.1-1_amd64.deb
$ wget http://downloads.datastax.com/cpp-driver/ubuntu/14.04/libuv-dev_1.6.1-1_amd64.deb
$ wget http://downloads.datastax.com/cpp-driver/ubuntu/14.04/cassandra-cpp-driver_2.1.0-1_amd64.deb
$ wget http://downloads.datastax.com/cpp-driver/ubuntu/14.04/cassandra-cpp-driver-dev_2.1.0-1_amd64.deb
$ sudo dpkg -i libuv_1.6.1-1_amd64.deb
$ sudo dpkg -i libuv-dev_1.6.1-1_amd64.deb
$ sudo dpkg -i cassandra-cpp-driver_2.1.0-1_amd64.deb
$ sudo dpkg -i cassandra-cpp-driver-dev_2.1.0-1_amd64.deb
Download and install the DataStax Cassandra PHP extension:
$ git clone https://github.com/datastax/php-driver.git
$ cd php-driver
$ sudo pecl install ext/package.xml
Add the extension to php.ini
:
$ sudo sh -c 'echo "extension=cassandra.so" >>/etc/php5/apache2/php.ini'
Restart Apache:
$ sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
Confirm Cassandra appears using <?php phpinfo();
