I am trying to setup horde webmail 5.2.9 on my server (debian Jessie).
When I go to localhost/horde/test.php I get
Code:
PAM Support (PECL extension): No
The PAM PECL extension is required to allow PAM authentication to be used.


To install the PAM extension, I have done the following:
Code:
# sudo pecl install --alldeps PAM

I can verify that PAM is installed:
Code:
# sudo pecl list
Installed packages, channel pecl.php.net:
=========================================
Package   Version State
pam       1.0.3   stable


But when I go to localhost/phpinfo.php, I don't see the pam module anywhere.
Also, I cannot find pam.so on my disk.
So editing php.ini with extension=pam.so as suggested by some is not an option.
Finally I don't see any PAM related module in /etc/apache2/mods-available.

What am I missing?

Pecl is a PHP thing.

Did you take a look into the /etc/php* folders?

There is a /etc/php4/mods-available folder, but it only contains .ini files
By contrast, /etc/apache2/mods-available contains .load and .conf files.

Furthermore, pam is not in /etc/php4/mods-available.

The .ini file is correct. But Jessie must have a /etc/php5 folder. not a 4

Yes php5 it is, the 4 was a typo.

Still, I don't see how I would enable the pam module in Apache from there.
If pecl installed the pam module and it is not in /etc/php5, where else could pecl put it?

There is also /etc/pam.d/, but not sure whether it can be used by Apache.

It is not /etc/pam.d/ that is for the OS itself.

I found on the net https://www.drupal.org/node/2549141

if you still have a question or an issue please ask again.
