Phalcon 3 - Centos 7 Cpanel EasyApache 4 - php5.6 - cpanel

Question

I am trying to install Phalcon with:
curl -s https://packagecloud.io/install/repositories/phalcon/stable/script.rpm.sh | sudo bash
yum install php56u-phalcon
but I get dependency errors:
Error: Package: php56u-phalcon-3.0.1-14.ius.el7.centos.x86_64 (phalcon_stable)
Requires: php56u-pdo(x86-64)
Error: Package: php56u-phalcon-3.0.1-14.ius.el7.centos.x86_64 (phalcon_stable)
Requires: php56u-common(x86-64)
Error: Package: php56u-phalcon-3.0.1-14.ius.el7.centos.x86_64 (phalcon_stable)
Requires: php56u(api) = 20131106
Error: Package: php56u-phalcon-3.0.1-14.ius.el7.centos.x86_64 (phalcon_stable)
Requires: php56u(zend-abi) = 20131226
These libraries are installed but with the modifier "ea-" of easy apache.
How I can install Phalcon 3 in Centos 7 cpanel easyapache 4?
Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Seems like phalcon expecting you to have php56 from ius repository.
I've had same error, but because my php56 came from remi repo instead I had no modifier on php* packages, for example php-pdo package instead of php56u-pdo.
I've solved it this way:
yum install php-phalcon3
(can be php-phalcon2, php7-php-palcon3 and so on - see yum search phalcon)
In your case this probably won't help, because you have ea- modifier on php*.
Possibly somebody more experienced with yum could suggest how to solve this conflict. But you still have two more options:
compile phalcon.so from source code (described here: https://github.com/phalcon/cphalcon).
install php from ius Centos 7 repository.
UPD: I must add that I was unable to make phalcon (php-phalcon* from remi dedicated repos for php5.6 and php7) to work - I've got "child pid exit signal Segmentation fault".
As a general rule: your phalcon package should be from the same repo from which you've installed php and php-* packages(e.g. php-mysqlnd, php-pdo).
In my opinion, if you wnat to be sure that your library will work on particular machine the best way is to compile it on this or similar machine.
