I'm trying to build a bash script to install the Source Guardian PHP extension however the destination directory is different on every subsequent release of Ubuntu.



Installing PHP5 on Ubuntu 14.04 results in the extensions being stored in /usr/lib/php5/20121212+lfs/, in Ubuntu 15.04 this directory changes, e.g. /usr/lib/20131226/



I've checked /etc/php5/fpm/php.ini and /etc/php5/fpm/php-fpm.conf but neither of these files has any mention of 20121212+lfs or 20131226.



If I place the Source Guardian extension anywhere else, it does not load.



Is there a way to programmatically determine the extension folder?

          Maybe you should do this:



          php-config --extension-dir


          If php-config doesn't exist, then apt-get install php-config if Ubuntu/Debian or yum install php-config if CentOS/Red Hat)



          That command will give exact location of your php extension folder.



          Don't forget to change your php.ini in order to use extensions.

            You can find it as well by creating a phpinfo script (a file that invokes phpinfo();) and then run it in the browser.
