I am uncertain as to how I can manually install a PHP extension, that is not included in the Base distro (neither 6.1.9 nor 6.2-beta20). It seems that I need the MySQL extension to properly run Spotweb. When I run php -m, mysql is not listed. I would be very grateful for pointers on how I could best achieve this..

Add a second docker container for mysql / mariadb and have spotweb use that for the database.

Thanks BRiT. I think my MySQL docker is running fine, I can access the Spotweb database and it will update using the retrieve button from the web interface. However, from the CLI I get the following:

root@Tower-unRAID:/mnt/cache# /usr/bin/php /mnt/cache/_Usenet/Apache/www/spotweb/retrieve.php

Fatal error: Undefined class constant 'MYSQL_ATTR_FOUND_ROWS' in /mnt/cache/_Usenet/Apache/www/spotweb/lib/dbeng/dbeng_pdo_mysql.php on line 28

 

In another thread, I got pointed towards the MySQL extension. I'm exploring this because I would like to set up a cron job for the retrieve.
