在Ubuntu中使用PHP openssl

Question

I have created a web app which uses PHPMailer for mailing and its working properly on my local server(Windows OS). However, when I uploaded it to the production server(Ubuntu 14.04.4) it returned an error which says “Message could not be sent.Mailer Error: Extension missing: openssl”.I tried looking for solution but nothing works. Anyway I'm using PHP5.3.6. I hope you guys can help me.

You can compile the openssl extension.

first step : download the php source in the version you are using .

then run command:

tar zxvf php-yourphpversion.tar.gz
cd php-yourphpversion/ext/openssl/

#notice if you have error  "cannot find config.m4" when run phpize , you   
#should   rename the file "config0.m4" to "config.m4" by command
#"mv config0.m4 config.m4"


/usr/local/php/bin/phpize     #here is your php location have install 
                              #in my computer ,the php is location in 
                              # /usr/local/php/ so the phpize is in
                              # /usr/local/php/bin/phpize


                                             #(your php location)/bin/php-config                                        
./configure --with-openssl --with-php-config=/usr/local/php/bin/php-config
make
sudo make install

then the openssl will install and return a path in my computer it return /usr/local/php/lib/php/extensions/debug-zts-20160303/

finally modify php.ini and restart php-fpm :

extension_dir = "the path return after install"   #you should add the return path here
extension=openssl.so
