Wordpress: Php-soap extension

[avidsapp]

I can't get the php-extension php-soap to load correctly.

Dockerfile:

FROM php:5.6-apache
RUN a2enmod rewrite

# install the PHP extensions we need
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
            libpng12-dev \
            libjpeg-dev \
            php-pear \
            php-http-request \
    && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/* \
    && docker-php-ext-configure gd --with-png-dir=/usr --with-jpeg-dir=/usr \
    && docker-php-ext-install gd
RUN docker-php-ext-install mysqli
RUN docker-php-ext-install php-soap

...

Output:

Step 5 : RUN docker-php-ext-install php-soap

I believe this should work:

RUN docker-php-ext-install soap

[avidsapp]

 configure: error: xml2-config not found. Please check your libxml2 installation.

Resolved the issue. I needed to also install libxml12-dev and add RUN chmod +x /entrypoint.sh to the Dockerfile.

Could you please describe how did you made this? Thank you!

I've solved it myself. So here are the steps I made to get the soap extension to work:

• get shell access to the wordpress container then

/bin/bash
apt-get update
apt-get install libxml2-dev
apt-get install php-soap
cd /usr/src/php/ext/soap
./configure
make
make install
docker-php-ext-enable soap

Exit the container and in the directory where your docker-compose.yml file is type:

docker-compose stop
docker-compose start 

To verify create a php file with phpinfo(), open it and you should see that the soap extension is loaded.

That worked for me and i hope it can be usefull for other...

That's one way to do it, however every time you recreate the WordPress container, you will need to redo these steps.

The method I used was adding the php extensions in the Dockerfile built from the docker-compose.yml file. The Dockerfile looks like:

FROM php:5.6-apache

RUN a2enmod rewrite expires

# install the PHP extensions we need
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
        libpng12-dev \
        libjpeg-dev \
        libxml2-dev \
        libmcrypt-dev \
        libmhash2 \
        libc6 \
        php5-mcrypt \
        php-pear \
        php-http-request \
        zlib1g \
        bzip2 \
    && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/* \
    && docker-php-ext-configure gd --with-png-dir=/usr --with-jpeg-dir=/usr \
    && docker-php-ext-install gd mysqli opcache mcrypt soap

# set recommended PHP.ini settings
# see https://secure.php.net/manual/en/opcache.installation.php
RUN { \
        echo 'opcache.memory_consumption=128'; \
        echo 'opcache.interned_strings_buffer=8'; \
        echo 'opcache.max_accelerated_files=4000'; \
        echo 'opcache.revalidate_freq=60'; \
        echo 'opcache.fast_shutdown=1'; \
        echo 'opcache.enable_cli=1'; \
    } > /usr/local/etc/php/conf.d/opcache-recommended.ini

VOLUME /var/www/html

ENV WORDPRESS_VERSION 4.5.1
ENV WORDPRESS_SHA1 9bf09e0ca8f656b650b3056339e2d3eb28c6355e

# upstream tarballs include ./wordpress/ so this gives us /usr/src/wordpress
RUN curl -o wordpress.tar.gz -SL https://wordpress.org/wordpress-${WORDPRESS_VERSION}.tar.gz \
    && echo "$WORDPRESS_SHA1 *wordpress.tar.gz" | sha1sum -c - \
    && tar -xzf wordpress.tar.gz -C /usr/src/ \
    && rm wordpress.tar.gz \
    && chown -R www-data:www-data /usr/src/wordpress

COPY docker-entrypoint.sh /entrypoint.sh

# make entrypoint executable
RUN chmod +x /entrypoint.sh

# grr, ENTRYPOINT resets CMD now
ENTRYPOINT ["/entrypoint.sh"]
CMD ["apache2-foreground"]

I tried many times and this is the way I did finally:

RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y libxml2-dev
RUN docker-php-ext-install soap
