HowTo: Debian (lenny) with PHP5-mnoGoSearch-DSO

Preface

mnoGoSearch is still part of Debian but the DSO-Module for PHP5 (5.2.5x) is not avaliable als Package.
This HowTo roughly describes the build-process for the mnogosearch.so and the manual way to enable it.

WARNING

This HowTo may result in a Module that may weaken your system or result in a unstable Version of PHP.
So please be aware, that you work at your own risk - like always.

This HowTo will not result in a Debian-Package!

This HowTo is based on a lot of Google-"research" and especially on this blog-entry:
http://xn.pinkhamster.net/blog/tech/mnogosearch_php_extension_on_debian_sarge.html

The important Source-Change was found here:
http://www.mnogosearch.org/board/message.php?id=19926

make it so

The mnoGoSearch-Client for PHP:
(http://www.mnogosearch.org/download.html)

cd /usr/src && \
wget http://www.mnogosearch.org/Download/php/mnogosearch-php-extension-1.96.tar.gz
tar xvfz mnogosearch-php-extension-1.96.tar.gz

Fix some lines in the mnogosearch-php-extension-file "php_mnogo.c"

search for
	&(Agent->Conf->Synonyms)
and replace with
	Agent->Conf->Synonym.Item
(should be on lines 920 and 1721)

The mnoGoSearch-Debian-Packages:

apt-get install mnogosearch-common mnogosearch-mysql mnogosearch-dev

The build-tree

apt-get build-dep php5
apt-get source php
apt-get source php5

Apply Debian-Patches

cd /usr/src/php5-5.2.5/ && ./debian/rules patch

Move the mnoGoSearch to the PHP-Build-Tree

mv ../1.96 ext/mnogosearch

Edit debian/rules and add "--with-mnogosearch=shared,/usr \" somewhere in the configure-rules

vi debian/rules

Edit debian/modulelist and append "mnogosearch mnoGoSearch" at the end

Let Debian do the rest (... wait ...)

./debian/rules binary

If done there should be a so-file avaliable:

cp ./apache2-build/modules/mnogosearch.so /usr/lib/php5/20060613+lfs/mnogosearch.so

Then add the PHP5-INI-File here:

vi /etc/php5/conf.d/mnogosearch.ini

Content of the INI-File:

extension=mnogosearch.so

Restart your Apache and a phpinfo() should give you the info about the loaded mnoGoSearch-DSO.
