I am using Ubuntu 12.04, PHP 5.5.13 (cli) and Apache/2.4.10. I installed Mongodb 2.6.4. It's working fine. Then i installed PHP-MongoDB driver. It got installed but is not showing in phpinfo(). When i execute php file with mongodb, i get the following error:

 PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php5/20121212/mongo.so' - /usr/lib/php5/20121212/mongo.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file   or directory in Unknown on line 0
 [Sun Aug 24 11:48:39.403845 2014] [:error] [pid 3008] [client 127.0.0.1:58857] PHP Fatal error:  Class 'MongoClient' not found in /var/www/PHP/php-mongo/testingmongodb.php on line 3, referer: http://localhost/PHP/php-mongo/

I installed PHP Mongodb driver as follows:

 sudo pecl install mongo

There are two php.ini so i added 

 extension=mongo.so

in both php.ini

 /etc/php.ini
 /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini

Then, restarted apache2

I also tried manual way.

unzip php_mongo-1.5.1.zip
cd mongodb-php-driver
phpize
./configure
sudo make install

While excuting phpize, i got the following error:

 Cannot find config.m4. 
 Make sure that you run '/usr/bin/phpize' in the top level source directory of the module

I also create a file /etc/php5/conf.d/mongo.ini and added "extension=mongo.so" but, still nothing is happening. I can't figure it out what's happening. Please help me in this.

Did you get any errors installing via pecl? In your first log messages it looks like the mongo.so extension wasn't installed in the expected directory ("/usr/lib/php5/20121212/"). When you tried the manual way, it seems like you're missing the PHP source. Have you tried sudo apt-get install php5-dev php5-cli php-pear before installing (as per the MongoDB manual). - Stennie

If you use use CLI command, you may need to add Mongo driver to the cli specific php.ini:

echo "extension=mongo.so" >> /etc/php5/cli/php.ini

For info, here is how I installed Mongo and mongo driver (according to the doc):

sudo -s
apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv 7F0CEB10
echo 'deb http://downloads-distro.mongodb.org/repo/ubuntu-upstart dist 10gen' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb.list
apt-get update
apt-get -y install mongodb-org
grep -q "extension=mongo.so" /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini || echo "extension=mongo.so" >> /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
grep -q "extension=mongo.so" /etc/php5/cli/php.ini || echo "extension=mongo.so" >> /etc/php5/cli/php.ini && pecl install mongo
service apache2 restart
