Install PHP OAuth Extension In Snow Leopard

Question

I am trying to install the PHP OAuth extension in Snow Leopard, I'm using the bundled Apache Web server and PHP 5.3.2 by Apple, which is working just fine.

When I type in Terminal:

sudo pecl install oauth

oauth-1.0.0.tgz downloads fine, but then I get this error:

WARNING: channel "pecl.php.net" has updated its protocols, use "pecl channel-update pecl.php.net" to update
downloading oauth-1.0.0.tgz ...

I really have no idea this means or how to fix it, please help!

Answer 1

To remind myself:

1. Install all of Xcode
2. Download the PHP source
3. Go to source-dir./etc/
4. Copy the /pcre/ dir. in to: /usr/include/php/ext/
5. Copy pcre.h from /usr/include/php/ext/pcrelib/ in to: /usr/include/php/ext/
6. sudo pecl install oauth
7. Add extension=oauth.so to php.ini

Answer 2

This problem can be fixed by installing a newer version of pcre. http://j.mp/f14mza
