I''m pulling my hair out when trying to carry out an oAuth journey using PHP.
I'm using a MAC_OSX_10.7.4/MAMP/PHP and I am pointing to the php inside my MAMP environment.
I have downloaded the latest oAuth php extension 1.2.2.
I've run:
pecl install oauth
Which came back successful, when I try to reinstall it I get:
pecl/oauth is already installed and is the same as the released version 1.2.2
I have added the line:
extension=oauth.so
in my php.ini. but whenever I try and run this simple bit of code to test out oauth:
<?php
define("CONSUMER_KEY", "dgqcifzjqksh");
define("CONSUMER_SECRET", "73Ft6jKqe3A7sCsc");
$oauth = new OAuth(CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET);
echo "oauth token" . $oauth;
$request_token_response = $oauth->getRequestToken('https://api.linkedin.com/uas/oauth/requestToken');
if($request_token_response === FALSE) {
throw new Exception("Failed fetching request token, response was: " . $oauth->getLastResponse());
} else {
$request_token = $request_token_response;
}
print "Request Token:\n";
printf(" - oauth_token = %s\n", $request_token['oauth_token']);
printf(" - oauth_token_secret = %s\n", $request_token['oauth_token_secret']);
print "\n";
?>
I get the following error in my php logs
PHP Fatal error: Class 'OAuth' not found in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/wemustcreate/wp-content/themes/MinimalDessign/linkedinOauth.php on line 6
Any Ideas what I might be doing wrong? I've checked php.ini and it doesnt show up there. I have even removed existing extensions and re added them to make sure my php.ini was updated correctly.
The only thing I can see which stikes me as being slightly odd is that all my extensions ending with .so are all unix executable files but my oauth file is a document. could this be the problem? I have added a screenshot to show the extensions.
