requires ext-mongodb ^1.5.0

[Barno]

I installed ext-mongodb

php --ri mongodb | grep version

MongoDB extension version => 1.5.1 
libbson bundled version => 1.11.0
libmongoc bundled version => 1.11.0

I have an issue with composer when I do composer install

- mongodb/mongodb 1.4.0 requires ext-mongodb ^1.5.0 -> the requested PHP extension mongodb is missing from your system.
- mongodb/mongodb 1.3.2 requires ext-mongodb ^1.4.0 -> the requested PHP extension mongodb is missing from your system.
- mongodb/mongodb 1.3.1 requires ext-mongodb ^1.4.0 -> the requested PHP extension mongodb is missing from your system.
- mongodb/mongodb 1.3.0 requires ext-mongodb ^1.4.0 -> the requested PHP extension mongodb is missing from your system.
- mongodb/mongodb 1.4.0 requires ext-mongodb ^1.5.0 -> the requested PHP extension mongodb is missing from your system.

My php Info (more details)

If I try to install mongodb with composer

composer require mongodb/mongodb I have that error

If I use ( and I don't want use this method )

composer install --ignore-platform-reqs

I can see

    "mongodb/mongodb": "^1.3",

But in This way I can't use some functionality, like aggregateCursor

Attempted to call an undefined method named "aggregateCursor" of class "MongoDB\Collection"

or I can't use $m = new \MongoClient();

Attempted to load class "MongoClient" from the global namespace.

For connect to mongoDb I have to use

new \MongoDB\Client

I Use Symfony, but I don't think that it's relevant

Composer version 1.6.5 2018-05-04 11:44:5

PHP 7.2.1 (cli) (built: Jan 15 2018 12:20:50) ( NTS ) Copyright (c) 1997-2017 The PHP Group

If Composer is reporting "the requested PHP extension mongodb is missing from your system" but the extension does show up in phpinfo() output, I would confirm that Composer is running with the same PHP environment that reports the extension. You may have multiple PHP binaries on the system and/or may be mixing up the CLI with a web SAPI environment. Each PHP environment may have its own php.ini file and each PHP version has its own pecl command and development headers used for compiling the extension.

I can't use some functionality, like aggregateCursor

If you're referring to MongoCollection::aggregateCursor(), that method is only found in the legacy mongo extension. The PHP library's upgrade guide includes a table that matches methods found in the legacy extension with their equivalents in the current driver/library.

Likewise for the MongoClient class. The equivalents in the current driver and library are MongoDB\Driver\Manager and MongoDB\Client, respectively.

thanks for reply @jmikola I can see my php ini with php --ini

Configuration File (php.ini) Path: /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php7.2.1/conf Loaded Configuration File: /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php7.2.1/conf/php.ini Scan for additional .ini files in: (none) Additional .ini files parsed: (none)

inside /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php7.2.1/conf/php.ini I can see

extension=mongodb.so and the version is 7.2.1

[jmikola]

composer diagnose may be helpful to determine the exact PHP binary used by Composer. It's quite possible that it's using macOS's default php binary or an alternative version installed from Homebrew, each of which may have their own php.ini file. Likewise, you should confirm the version of pecl used to install the extension (e.g. which pecl).

[Barno]

thanks again, you are right, I'm using default php. pecl version is:

PEAR Version: 1.10.5 PHP Version: 7.2.1 Zend Engine Version: 3.2.0

[jmikola]

@Barno: Did you sort this out on your end, or is this still an outstanding problem?

Assuming your intention is to run the extension/library from MAMP's PHP environment, the take-away from https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-php-driver/issues/874#issuecomment-403911019 was:

• Ensure you use MAMP's pecl command to install the extension
• Ensure the extension is loaded for MAMP's CLI and web SAPI environments
• Install the library using Composer, while ensuring that it does so through MAMP's CLI environment (there should be no reason to disable platform checks)

We are closing this ticket as there was no follow up since our last question. Feel free to re-open with more information if we are mistaken.

sudo apt-get install php-mongodb

[imyuvii]

do php -m and see if MongoDB extension is loaded.

If we used php7.3 at ubuntu 18.10 on need to this command:- Open Terminal and run it.

sudo apt-get install php7.3-mongodb

[michaelphipps]

As of September 2019 sudo apt-get install php-mongodb does not install a high enough version of the php-mongodb extension on Ubuntu. By using the pecl install method, you will get the correct version.

If you don't have pecl installed:

sudo apt install php-pear
sudo apt install php-dev

Once pecl is installed: sudo pecl install mongodb

Finally, to easily add the extension to php: sudo phpenmod mongodb

@michaelphipps if you are having an issue, please consider opening a new issue instead of commenting on an old, unrelated issue. The version being installed depends heavily on the system you are using, which is why you need to include more information. The version being installed depends on your Ubuntu version (assuming you're not using a PPA):

Ubuntu Version	ext-mongodb version
Xenial (16.04 LTS)	1.1.5
Bionic (18.04 LTS)	1.3.4
Cosmic (18.10)	1.5.2
Disco (19.04)	1.5.3
Eoan (upcoming 19.10)	1.5.5

If you are using ppa:ondrej/php, it will install 1.5.5 on all supported platforms (16.04, 18.04, 19.04).

For any other versions in use or issues, please create a new issue and include necessary information so we can debug this. Thanks!

Thanks @michaelphipps , this worked 👍

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php sudo apt-get install php-mongodb

macOS sudo pecl install mongodb

Note: it will add extension automatically you need to remove existing extension line from php.ini if already exist

[kzenman]

sudo apt-get install php7.3-mongodb

Worked for me in version 7.4 - sudo apt-get install php7.4-mongodb
