how to install dBase on cpanel/whm with php version 5.3.2

Question

how can i install dBase on cpanel/whm with php version 5.3.2, i didn't see the option on EasyApache (Apache Update)

UPDATE Below is the ssh command to make it work

wget http://pecl.php.net/get/dbase-5.0.1.tgz
tar -xzf dbase-5.0.1.tgz
cd dbase-5.0.1
phpize
./configure
make
make install

Answer 1

according to response from cPanel:

It appears Dbase is no longer available in PHP 5.3.x, I selected 5.2.13 (without building) and it showed up in the options list.

So, I switched back to php 5.2.X and installed dBase from EasyApache and it's now working.

Answer 2

I know that this is not a lot of help for cpanel use, but if you can use pecl, dbase was moved to pecl in 5.3. You can still use it with 5.3 by doing:

pecl install channel://pecl.php.net/get/dbase

Then add dbase.so to php.ini if it is not there already. The --enable-dbase configure option when building php does nothing in 5.3.

Answer 3

In WHM, go to Software > Module Installers then click in Manage in PHP PECL line. Search for "dbase" > Install!
