PhpLaravelDockerDockerfilePhp Problem Overview
Can anyone help me with this problem.
When i try to create a docker image from a dockerfile for laravel application i get this error:
> checking for oniguruma... no
> configure: error: Package requirements (oniguruma) were not met:

> No package 'oniguruma' found

> The command '/bin/sh -c docker-php-ext-install pdo mbstring' returned a non-zero code: 1
Here is my Dockerfile:
FROM php:7
RUN apt-get update -y && apt-get install -y openssl zip unzip git
RUN curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php -- --install-dir=/usr/local/bin --filename=composer
RUN docker-php-ext-install pdo mbstring
WORKDIR /app
COPY app /app # this copies all the app files to a folder called `app`
RUN composer install
CMD php artisan serve --host=0.0.0.0 --port=8000
EXPOSE 8000
and the docker command to build the Dockerfile
sudo docker build -t test .
Php Solutions
Solution 1 - Php
What @kalatabe said is correct. But in case you absolutely wanted to make sure mbstring gets installed, you can also add libonig-dev to your apt-get install
Solution 2 - Php
Just remove mbstring from the docker-php-ext-install instruction.
The error is caused by a dependency problem - the mbstring extension requires the oniguruma library to make multibyte regular expression functions work. From the installation guide:
> Oniguruma is necessary for the regular expression functions with multibyte character support. Oniguruma is bundled with mbstring. As of PHP 5.4.0, if Oniguruma is already installed on the system, --with-onig[=DIR] can be specified to use the installed library.
However, in the image that you're using, the extension is already installed and configured, so you don't need to do anything else:
$> docker run --rm -it php:7 php -r "var_dump(mb_ereg_match('^99.*', '123456'));"
bool(false)
$> docker run --rm -it php:7 php -r "var_dump(mb_ereg_match('^12.*', '123456'));"
bool(true)
Solution 3 - Php
for phpbrew user,
you can solve this error by removing the mbstring variant from installation command using -mbstring parameter.
Example:
phpbrew install php-7.4 +default -mbstring
Solution 4 - Php
If your are using a distro with yum package manager. Execute this command:
sudo yum install -y oniguruma-devel
Solution 5 - Php
This helped me on Mac
- brew install oniguruma
