Custom PHP extensions

[info]

Hello, I have compiled ssh2-php into my default cPanel PHP setup and its enabled in php.ini with extension = ssh2.so
If I want to use the same module with the PHP selector, how can I do it? I tried inserting the line into alt_php.ini but I got an error.
Thank you.

Ill ask developers to document how to do it, but we will add ssh2 to list of available extensions. I presume you are talking about this one?

Yes.

Please try the following (for example for PHP 5.4):
1) put ssh2.so in /opt/alt/php54/usr/lib/php/modules
2) create ssh2.ini in /opt/alt/php54/etc/php.d.all (with "extension=ssh2.so" directive).
3) choose ssh2 in Selector tab in LVEManager
4) choose ssh2 in user cpanel interface
5) restart apache

Thank you, now it appears without error.

I noticed one thing when choosing the default modules for alt-php. If using Internet Explorer it doesnt save what you have chosen.

We will try to address it in the next release, early next week.
