PHP extensions path in ubuntu

Question

I want to install a php package in ubuntu. that package need to php mongo extension and i installed and i put in /etc/php5/cli/php.ini :

extension=mongo.so

But i got an error to install that package :

the requested PHP extension mongodb is missing from your system.

So when I want to know where is the mongo extension i typing php -i | grep extension_dir shows :

extension_dir => /usr/lib/php5/20131226 => /usr/lib/php5/20131226

And when typing php-config --extension-dir shows :

/usr/lib/php5/20121212

I think extensions path is wrong but i dont know, how can i fix that?

this worked for me, did you make sure to restart the web server? i.e. sudo service apache2 restart

Install your mongo.so in your lampp

/opt/lampp/lib/php/extensions/

Keep this path in your

/opt/lampp/lib/php/php.ini file

extension=mongo.so

try this

sudo apt-get install php5-mongo

if that doesnt work try these sudo apt-get install php5-dev make php-pear sudo pecl install mongo sudo echo "extension=mongo.so" | sudo tee /etc/php5/mods-available/mongo.ini

Alright try this... ** $ sudo apt-get -f install ** $ sudo apt-get install php and hit TAB key on your keyboard a few times, which should give you something like this Display all 492 possibilities? (y or n) Then go ahead and hit 'y' you would see all the possible values
