Unable to install mongodb.so as extension in MAMP PHP

Ramon_Chavez · 2024-03-20T21:26:37.487Z

Hi im using MAMP pro 6.8 on a MAC Big sur 11.4. … I have searched and tried a lot of stuff, installing the extension using this guide: MAMP PRO (macOS) Documentation > FAQ > PHP > Install a PHP Extension using PECL.

And also i found several other guides ive tried, i ve tried to install the extension directly in the php version on the Mac and then move the mongodb.so file to the MAMP installation also.

The mongodb.so file is created ok,
Apparently the extension is installed ok, in terminal i get:

Build process completed successfully
Installing '/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php8.1.13/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20210902/mongodb.so'
install ok: channel://pecl.php.net/mongodb-1.17.3
configuration option "php_ini" is not set to php.ini location
You should add "extension=mongodb.so" to php.ini

no matter what i do , everytime i enable “extension=mongodb.so” in my php.ini file i get a 500 Error,

I also found this Mac OS: Apache won't start on MAMP after add extension=mongodb.so · Issue #682 · mongodb/mongo-php-driver · GitHub but i didnt find any info i understand that i can apply to my commands so i can install mongodb.so

I really need to enable this extension. Is there anything you recommend i can try? I have looking for this, searching, google, and in stackoverflow with no luck.

Thanks in advance. Sorry if it is the wrong category.

My apache log:

Update : If anyone is facing this crashes, when installing on Pecl now

You have to choose “no” to use system libraries, also “no” to libbson and libmongoc , When SSL options, i use Darwin, and in use only openssl , i choose no. This make it. Its working now.

I’d like to recommend ServBay for MongoDB installation.
