Php & Imap

[tino]

Hi,

I'm thinking of recompiling PHP to include, for example, the IMAP modules.

Has onyone done this (and succeeded)?

I've got a few Ensim servers, and recompiling PHP on those boxes it kinda hard; especially since after that most upgrades won't work any more. :-(

Any ideas on this issue?

Tino

The DA customapache script does this very easily for you.

Check out /usr/local/directadmin/customapache

./build and ./configure.php

[tino]

These files appear to be holding the info I need.
But I really would like some info on how to modify these. (For example; what do the version numbers do?)

I could simply add the required --with-imap=/usr/local/imap-2000e to the compile statement in configure.php;
'./configure' '--with-apxs' '--with-curl' '--with-curl-dir=/usr/local/lib' '--with-gd' '--with-gd-dir=/usr/local/lib' '--with-gettext' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local/lib' '--with-kerberos' '--with-mcrypt' '--with-mysql' '--with-pear' '--with-png-dir=/usr/local/lib' '--with-xml' '--with-zlib' '--with-zlib-dir=/usr/local/lib' '--enable-bcmath' '--enable-calendar' '--enable-ftp' '--enable-magic-quotes' '--enable-sockets' '--enable-track-vars'

Would this be sufficient? Do I recompile PHP simply by running ./configure.php?

Sould I compile and install c-client and imap-2000e before running configure.php?

(There are some issues with the imap-2000e install, you should not copy the imap files to the system include directory, since there may be conflicts. See www.php.net, and search for IMAP in the functions list for more info.)

thanks!

Tino

[tino]

Okay, I did it.

This is what I did;

I downloaded the c-client and installed it. Since I'm on a RH9 box, this is the make command for the c-client:

make lrh EXTRACFLAGS=-I/usr/kerberos/include EXTRALDFLAGS=-I/usr/kerberos/lib

I've create a directory /usr/local/imap-2000e and created a /lib and /include directory in it.

I copied all files to the proper directory (including c-client.a to lib/libc-client.a)

I change the compile options in configure.php. I added:
--with-imap=/usr/local/imap-2000e

Then I did a ./build php without rebuilding everything that was already on the system.

Then I restarted apache, just to be safe. :-)

That did the trick!

I hope IMAP won't be disabled in future updates....

Thanks for the info!

Well, Personally i recommend to backup the configure.php and apache files, because when there is a new version everyone starts trying what someone else has posted on the forums without knowing what the rm configure.php exactly does, at least, i said something about it before :D

DirectAdmin doesn't automatically recompile apache or php (or any hosting related stuff besides itsself, as far as i know), only when installing new modules it tends to use the rpm command (or does it accually compile ?)

Every time the custombuilder is used you need to restart apache to get the new stuff to work.

[DirectAdmin Support]

Hello,

DirectAdmin doen't touch that stuff once installed :) And yes, all apache related things are compiled.

[uk_joker2003]

anychance of an idiots guide to this? Where did you get c-client? etc etc

Thanks in advance

[tino]

Hi,

Yes, I can give you a small "HOWTO":

1) Download the c-client: ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/imap/c-client.tar.Z in a directory of your liking, for example your home directory. I will assume you download the file in you current directory.
2) Extract the c-client: tar -zxvf c-client.tar.Z
3) Enter the c-client source directory: cd imap-2002e (Of course, the directory name can vary if you extracted the client to another directory, or a new release comes available. At this moment 2002e is the latest stable version, but there is a 2004 beta.)
4) Check the file Makefile to see how you should "Make" the c-client. (Look in Makefile and find your system type code. For example, modern versions of Linux will use either "slx", "lnp", "lrh", or "lsu".)
5) "Make" the c-client, for example: make slx
NOTE: If you run RedHat 9, use this command:
make lrh EXTRACFLAGS=-I/usr/kerberos/include EXTRALDFLAGS=-I/usr/kerberos/lib
6) It's important that you do not copy the IMAP source files directly into the system include directory as there may be conflicts. Instead, create a new directory inside the system include directory, such as /usr/local/imap-2000e/ (location and name depend on your setup and IMAP version), and inside this new directory create additional directories named lib/ and include/. From the c-client directory from your IMAP source tree, copy all the *.h files into include/ and all the *.c files into lib/. Additionally when you compiled IMAP, a file named c-client.a was created. Also put this in the lib/ directory but rename it as libc-client.a.
7) Change the configure.php in /usr/local/directadmin/customapache. Add this line:
--with-imap=/usr/local/imap-2000e
at the end of the configure statement. Remember to add a "\" to the previous line. The configure statement should look like this:

./configure \
--with-apxs \
--with-curl \
--with-curl-dir=/usr/local/lib \
--with-gd \
--with-gd-dir=/usr/local/lib \
--with-gettext \
--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local/lib \
--with-kerberos \
--with-mcrypt \
--with-mysql \
--with-pear \
--with-png-dir=/usr/local/lib \
--with-xml \
--with-zlib \
--with-zlib-dir=/usr/local/lib \
--enable-bcmath \
--enable-calendar \
--enable-ftp \
--enable-magic-quotes \
--enable-sockets \
--enable-track-vars \
--with-imap=/usr/local/imap-2000e

It is at the top of the configure.php file.
8) Recompile PHP. Go to /usr/local/directadmin/customapache and type: ./build php Do not rebuild the stuff that PHP uses; it's allready on your system and doesn't need recompiling.
9) Restart the Apache Web Server (from the DirectAdmin Control Panel, or /etc/init.d/httpd restart).

I know that this could be done nicer if you place the entire process of installing the c-client to your server in the build file. But since you have to do some copying and renaming in the c-client libraries (see point 6) I did it the way I mentioned above.

Well, this small HOWTO should enable everyone to install IMAP support in PHP.

You can use the phpinfo() command to see if it all worked.

And euh... Don't blame me if you brake your server. :-) Should be pretty safe though!

[uk_joker2003]

I am now getting this when i build php



Thank you for using PHP.

/usr/local/directadmin/customapache/configure.php: line 19: --enable-bcmath: command not found

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

[tino]

I guess you added the --with-imap=/usr/local/imap-2000e line below the other "--with..." lines?

Did you terminate that new line with a "\" (like the rest)?

it should read:

--with-imap=/usr/local/imap-2000e \

All lines in the configure statement should end with "\", except the last one.

Tino

[uk_joker2003]

below is my configure.php

#!/bin/sh
./configure \
--with-apxs \
--with-curl \
--with-curl-dir=/usr/local/lib \
--with-gd \
--with-gd-dir=/usr/local/lib \

--enable-calendar \
--enable-ftp \
--enable-magic-quotes \
--enable-sockets \
--enable-track-vars \
--with-imap=/usr/local/imap-2000e \

[loopforever]

Change

--with-imap=/usr/local/imap-2000e \

to

--with-imap=/usr/local/imap-2000e

That should fix your problem. By keeping \ at the end, the configure script is going to think there's another flag coming after --with-imap.

[uk_joker2003]

i then get the below

Thank you for using PHP.

/usr/local/directadmin/customapache/configure.php: line 19: --enable-bcmath: command not found

[tino]

It seems you did not install the c-client in the directory you mention in the configure.php script.

Did you correctly copy the c-client files?

[tino]

Hmm... That all looks pretty okay to me.

I have no clue what goes wrong.

If you remove the "--with-imap" line from the configure.php script, are you able to recompile php then?

Tino

[uk_joker2003]

thanks for your help if i change it back i still get this error

/usr/local/directadmin/customapache/configure.php: line 19: --enable-bcmath: command not found

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

[tino]

I think you need to get this one sorted out first.

Since bcmatch doesn't need to be compiled or anything (it's just a PHP option) the real error might be the line above.

Could it be you have used a "strange" editor? Open the file in vi and see if there are any strange characters at the end of the previous line... I'm not sure if that is the problem, but I really would have no other idea.

Tino

[uk_joker2003]

I used vi and i have just checked it with pico and there are no extra charachers...

[uk_joker2003]

how do i do a clean install of php?

[tino]

The configure script does just that. :-)

It configures the PHP installation, a make and a make install after that will install PHP.

The build script will do all that for you.

Tino

[uk_joker2003]

is it worth saying yes and over writing everything? By the way my php seems to still work

[DirectAdmin Support]

cd /usr/local/directadmin/customapache
./build clean
./build php
If you want to restore the defaut configure.php file, run:

cd /usr/local/directadmin/customapache
rm -f configure.*
./build clean
./build update
./build php
John

[tino]

uk_joker2003,

How did it all work out? Did you get a clean install of PHP? And did you manage to add imap support in PHP?

You can also add --with-imap-ssl to the ./configure line of PHP... I forgot to mention that earlier.

TIno

[Wunk]

Quick IMAP into PHP guide:

Get the imap* RPM's from one of the RedHat 9 mirrors if you run redhat 9.., next set of commands should work:

rpm -Uvh ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/site/ftp.redhat.com/redhat/linux/9/en/os/i386/RedHat/RPMS/imap*

cd /usr/local/directadmin/customapache
rm -f configure.php
./build clean
./build update

Open up the freshly downloaded configure.php, and modify the last part:
add a \ to the last line and then add imap:
--enable-track-vars \
--with-imap

Save that file, then do:
./build php

Answer yes to all rebuild questions to make sure you're up to date on all packages, then once it finishes do a: service httpd restart

You should have imap support then.., quick way to check:
create a file in /var/www/html/ called phpinfo.php with the following lines:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>

Then go to: http://you.ip.address/phpinfo.php
And you should be able to see the freshly compiled IMAP with that info..

Good luck :-)

[Seth]

Wunk

worked perfect. Thanks!

[Eagle1]

I have tried both of these and keep getting

checking whether IMAP works... no
configure: error: build test failed. Please check the config.log for details.

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

If I take the --with-imap out of the configure.php file, it will work. But I need IMAP.

What do I need to do, to fix this?

Thanks, Eddie

[Wunk]

Looks like you're still missing the IMAP libraries..

[Eagle1]

When I tried to install the rpm's, I was informed they were already installed.

I tried again adding --force to insure they were installed.

Eddie

[Wunk]

What's in the config.log ?

[Eagle1]

I can't find a config.log.

[Eagle1]

I found it. It was in the php-4.3.4 directory.
Do you know why it's not working?

Thanks, Eddie

[Wunk]

Could you try the following:

Type in a bash command line:
export LANG=en_US
And then recompile in that same shell ?

(do a './build clean' first, then a './build update', put the changes in the config.php again for imap, then a './build php', might even want to remove the php-4.3.4 source directory)

There's a bug in the plain RH9 release of bash, which has a weird language setting, and it messes up a certain range of compiles (Perl's CPAN completely breaks if you try to compile something in a plain RH9 setup without updates)

Dunno if this causes it, but it's worth a shot..

[tino]

Sounds like some libraries or header files are missing. After making imap, did you correctly copy the required header files and libraries to the correct location?

Ok, thanks. I'll give it a shot tonight!

[Eagle1]

I have tried all of the above. I still can't get it to work.
I must be missing something.
Is there some sort of up2date command to get any missing libraries?

[Luke Skidmore]

I compiled using the command tino gave for redhat 9, but after I did I had no c-client.a file creted that I could copy.

So I am stuck and I don't know how to proceed from here.

TIA

Hello,

Modified imap source code can be found here:

It should create the c-client.a for you.

# pico /usr/local/directadmin/customapache/configure.php

Add:
\
--with-imap=/usr/local/imap-2004d

Where \ is on the end of the last line in the file before you started changing it.

# /usr/local/directadmin/customapache/build php

We are not recompiling other things besides php, so we said no to all questions.

After everything is finished, restart apache.

# service httpd restart


To check if the recompile worked properly, create a file called phpinfo.php, with the following content:

phpinfo.php

<?php
phpinfo();
?>


Surf to http://www.yourcompany.com/phpinfo.php and verify if the following information is there:


IMAP c-Client Version 2004


If so, the installation went fine.

This might be working on all RedHat based operating systems, but this is nor confirmed nor certain. I'm not responsible for any errors

[Mikej0h]

Hi all,

I'm also trying to get this to work. Trying to suit on CentOS 4.0 with uptodate DirectAdmin.
During compiling the imap-2004d directory it just failes.

If you have any suggestions, please tell me !

Here the complete action log (and see by yourself where it failes):

wget ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/imap/c-client.tar.Z
tar -xvzf c-client.tar.Z
[... extract all files ...]
cd imap-2004d/

Then tried two make options, but both failes:
make slx AND make lrh
[... sorry for the long code...]

Thanks, downloading and installing the pam-devel package was the solution to this problem.
By the way my os is CentOS 3.4 instead of CentOS 4.0.

Thanks anyway !

I am not sure what I am doing wrong... I followed the instructions for imap-2004e given earlier in this thread, copying everything to the /usr/local/imap-2004e 'lib' and 'include' dirs.

Then modified the configure.php and added:

/
--with-imap=/usr/local/imap-2004e

Running ./build php returns this error:

Any ideas? I checked and rfc822.h IS located in the imap-2004e/include dir.

[costarica]

Awesome, that did the trick.

I was trying to recompile PHP% w/imap support, but when I followed the instructions and just used the included version of php4, it worked.

So, no php5 for me for now since I need imap support, which is fine since I also need jpgraph and it was not working right on php5 anyhow.

Thanks agian guys!

I'm on a debian 3.1 system, after reading the Makefile, I suppose I have to do # make ldb
But I'm not sure, maybe to include some extra parameters? Does anyone knows sure how to do this for Debian?

The line you added tells it to look for the files in the /usr/local/imap-2000e directory structure, you put all the files in /usr/local/imap-2004g, so you need to change the line in configure.php to /usr/local/imap-2004g. You mostly followed someone elses directions, except they really did put all their files in /usr/local/imap-2000e, and that is why it worked for them.

Are you sure you did the
cd c-client
part? Without that, you won't have any .h , .c and the .a file in the current directory.

[rocky]

Ok , get past the cp *.h and cp *.c part, now I am stuck at cp c-client.a /usr/local/imap-2004g/lib

Thanks

Rocky

[toml]

If you followed the exact steps you listed, with the exception of configure.php edit, it should have been built in the c-client directory, the same directory the .h and .c files were.

[hostpc.com]

Are these instructions still valid with Dovecot enabled?

[toml]

This just adds IMAP client support, it has nothing to do with which IMAP server is used. So, yes this would still apply for Dovecot, as well as Cyrus, Courier, UW and any other IMAP server. They all speak the IMAP protocol and that is what this step adds support for.

No, you can't use yum.

That *will* break your PHP install created by DA/custombuilder.

Don't quote me on it, but the way how you can do it, is exactly the same as with PHP 4.

No, you need the IMAP API symbols available, and to get those, it needs to be linked to the IMAP client library. And the hooks to use that library need to be turned on, which happens during the build phase.

[FransVanNispen]

What to do?

configure: error: Kerberos libraries not found.

Check the path given to --with-kerberos (if no path is given, searches in /usr/kerberos, /usr/local and /usr )


*** There was an error while trying to configure php. Check the configure.php file
It looks like this is all a 64bit<->32bit incompatibility.
On my 64bit CentOS boxes, none of them have either a /usr/kerberos/lib or /usr/kerberos/lib64 folder.

Installing the original 64bit c-client lib by running:

up2date -u libc-client* does install the libc-client.a, but the php configuration cannot find it, as it appearently only checks for a 32 bit version.

Disabling --with-kerberos does compile, but gives me a link error in relocation of 64 to 32 bit in libc-client.a, the one build from the DA file.

Even when installing both kerberos 5 64bit and 32bit libraries, the php configuration seems unable to find them when enabling imap.

Without IMAP enabled, ldd /usr/local/bin/php clearly shows that kerberos 5 IS installed and linked to corectly:

libgssapi_krb5.so.2 => /usr/lib64/libgssapi_krb5.so.2 (0x00000030ab200000)
libkrb5.so.3 => /usr/lib64/libkrb5.so.3 (0x00000030aad00000)
libcom_err.so.2 => /lib64/libcom_err.so.2 (0x00000030aab00000)
libk5crypto.so.3 => /usr/lib64/libk5crypto.so.3 (0x00000030ab400000)

Maybe it's all just a bug in PHP with the new IMAP ?

Why did they change IMAP to need libc-client anyways, while it has worked before without this?

[FransVanNispen]

In order to get the PHP IMAP extention to compile correctly, just manually add the libc-client like written in a previous post.

On CentOS 64bit, you then get an error regarding kerberos5.

To solve this, remove the configure option --with-kerberos
and add:

--enable-pic

It might also helptto add the option:

--with-libdir=lib64

EDIT: It seems you also need to compile c-client with PIC enambled.
To do this, edit the Makefile. Change these lines:

#EXTRACFLAGS= DA CHANGED
EXTRACFLAGS=-I/usr/kerberos/include -L/usr/kerberos/lib

To:

#EXTRACFLAGS= DA CHANGED
EXTRACFLAGS=-I/usr/kerberos/include -L/usr/kerberos/lib -fPIC

[tino]

I'm not sure if people are still having problems with this, but life has become much easier over the last few years... :-)

If you have CentOS or something you dan do this;

yum install libc-client
yum install libc-client-devel

in the configure.php don't add --with-imap=/bla/bla but this:

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

that's all...

Oh yeah, if you are running 64bits, you need the -fPIC like stated earlier.

I'm not sure if people are still having problems with this, but life has become much easier over the last few years... :-)

If you have CentOS or something you dan do this;

yum install libc-client
yum install libc-client-devel

in the configure.php don't add --with-imap=/bla/bla but this:

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

that's all...

Oh yeah, if you are running 64bits, you need the -fPIC like stated earlier.

Tino,

Thank you so much. This helps a lot!

Best regards,

Can you post the whole contents of your configure.php(_ap2) file?
I expect you are missing a trailing '\' somewhere

[congkai]

its okay. i sloved


REMEMBER TO ADD A \ IN THE LAST LINE OF CONFIGURE.PHP BEFORE ADDING THE 2 LINES.

AND A MUST TO RESTART HTTPD.

This works flawlessly running CentOS 5.1 with Apache2 and the custombuild script for DirectAdmin. Thank you!

I've done this before, but this one is unusual...

I have a customer running DA, CentOS 4.6 64-bit.

After attempting to rebuild kerberos/imap a bit as was done in the initial posts in this thread, I've resorted to installing the libraries provided by yum, libc-client, and libc-client-devel

Both libraries are installed, and my configure command is successful.

When attempting to issue "make" after the fact however, the system farts on /usr/include/imap/unix.h because MAILSTREAM is not defined (seems it is defined in mail.h, but is never included..)

Configure command (config command is in phpcompile)

[root@srv04 php-5.2.6]# ./phpcompile 2>&1 | grep IMAP
checking for IMAP support... yes
checking for IMAP Kerberos support... yes
checking for IMAP SSL support... yes
checking whether build with IMAP works... yes



The exact compiler output is:

Anyone ever seen anything like this?

Well, I've found a fix for my issue, here's what was done:

-- Compiling PHP 5.2.6 + IMAP 2004g on a 64 bit system --

1. Install Kerberos

x) cd into your sandbox directory
a) wget http://web.mit.edu/Kerberos/dist/krb5/1.5/krb5-1.5.4-signed.tar
b) unpack the archive
c) cd krb5-1.5.4/src
d) ./configure
e) make

*** do not 'make install'!!

2. Install IMAP 2004g

Step c may need to be adjusted depending on your OS, and the paths to your kerberos libs (created above)

x) cd into your sandbox directory
a) wget ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/imap/old/imap-2004g.tar.Z
b) tar -zxf imap-2004g.tar.Z
c) make lr5 EXTRACFLAGS=-I/devel/krb5-1.5.4/src/include/ EXTRALDFLAGS=-I/devel/krb5-1.5.4/src/lib/ EXTRAAUTHENTICATORS=gss

*** do not 'make install'!

d) create symlinks whilst still inside the imap directory:
ln -sf c-client lib
ln -sf c-client include

3. Build PHP

x) cd into your sandbox directory
a) get the PHP source (5.2.6 at time of this post)
b) unpack the php source
c) drum up your configure command, and specify --with-imap=/xxx/imap-2004g/ --with-imap-ssl --with-kerberos

That should do the trick! This was done on a CentOS 4.6 64-bit running DA. I think whatever the circumstances may be, building against the packages above would bypass any problems.

Good luck! This seems to be a hot topic!

[transix]

This is how i have done it i tried all the options above but no luck i installed it on different kind of systems in the past and different kinds of php all need another way to handle it so try all the options

OS : Centos 5.2 64 bit (xen VM)

php : 5.2.6

Login as root
cd /usr/local/directadmin/customapache
wget http://files.directadmin.com/services/da_imap-2004g.tar.gz

tar -zxvf da_imap-2004g.tar.gz
cd imap-2004g
vi Makefile
Change
#EXTRACFLAGS= DA CHANGED
EXTRACFLAGS=-I/usr/kerberos/include -L/usr/kerberos/lib

To:

#EXTRACFLAGS= DA CHANGED
EXTRACFLAGS=-I/usr/kerberos/include -L/usr/kerberos/lib -fPIC

./buildit
cd c-client
mkdir /usr/local/imap-2004g/
mkdir /usr/local/imap-2004g/lib
mkdir /usr/local/imap-2004g/include
cp *.h /usr/local/imap-2004g/include
cp *.c /usr/local/imap-2004g/lib
cp c-client.a /usr/local/imap-2004g/lib
mv /usr/local/imap-2004g/lib/c-client.a /usr/local/imap-2004g/lib/libc-client.a

cd /usr/local/directadmin/customapache
vi configure.php

add
--with-imap=/usr/local/imap-2004g \
remove
--with-kerberos \

Save it
do a ./build clean
and a ./build php n

This worked for me

[shaunchng]

Hey there, I am trying to install PHP-imap too, I am new with this but why is there a need to remove the
--with-kerberos \

in the configure.php?
