Php – Install PHP OAuth Extension In Snow Leopard

mac-osxoauthosx-snow-leopardPHP

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 ...

$PHP_AUTOCONF environment variable. Then, rerun this script.

ERROR: `phpize' failed

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

Also you can install PHP with Pear using Homebrew:

brew install php70 --with-pear [--with-apache]

And then install oauth:

sudo pecl install oauth

It automatically adds the extension=oauth.so to php.ini.
