在服务器上启用PDO，或者不使用laravel？

Question

i have laravel based cms, when i try to put it on our server it says: Class 'PDO' not found

So i tried to just write a small script with just a new pdo object, same result. The server doesnt belong to our company, so i dont have access to php.ini etc. I have access to cpanel, but php options are only for reference there, i cant change them( dont see pdo in there anyways).

I have to finish the cms, and make it work, but i m complete noob in servers-related stuff. :(

I am right now at weekend, so cant call the support\etc for the server. Is there anything i can do now to enable PDO? i found an article on google how to enable it from cpanel whm, but it doesnt look like my cpanel at all.

p.s. is this usually a problem to get the server company enable extensions like pdo\mysqli\etc? is this normal they only have basic mysql? seems very weird to me, its like basics for DB, and working with basic mysql only, which is much more prone to injections is simply not safe and costs x10 work hours to make programmers write own db class when there is great free stuff like pdo\mysqli...this is stupid as hell, for a PAID hosting...

Answer 1

As you are having cPanel, The best and easy way is to enable the extension with easyapache

log in to server via ssh

/scripts/easyapache

Don't forget to run that in screen

screen -S test

Then enable the PDO extension for the php.

If you are not expert with easyapache back end, then try from WHM. here are the steps

• Login to WHM
• Click Apache Update
• Click Start Customizing Based on Profile
• Select an Apache version
• Click Next Step
• Select PHP 5
• Click Next Step
• Select a version of PHP 5
• Click Next Step
• Click Exhaustive Options List button
• Scroll down to the check box labeled PDO ( Two pdo Options to be checked )
• Click Save and Build

Both will work in the same way. I hope this will resolve your issue.
