How do I install Soap?
I got this error:
>Fatal error: Class 'SoapClient' not found in /home/user/mysite.com/path/to/file.php on line 16
I am hosting my site in DreamHost and they don't support any third-party installation.
UPDATE:
I copied the php.ini file with this script: http://sxi.sabrextreme.com/dh-phpini
I am using an API from a website and it says something like this:
#######################################################################
## You need to enable the following extensions in your PHP.ini file ##
## php_openssl.dll ##
## php_soap.dll ##
#######################################################################
and here are the list of extensions my php.ini file has:
extension=php_bz2.dll
;extension=php_cpdf.dll
;extension=php_curl.dll
;extension=php_dba.dll
;extension=php_dbase.dll
;extension=php_dbx.dll
;extension=php_exif.dll
;extension=php_fdf.dll
;extension=php_filepro.dll
;extension=php_gd2.dll

;extension=php_mime_magic.dll
;extension=php_ming.dll
;extension=php_mssql.dll
;extension=php_msql.dll
;extension=php_mysql.dll
;extension=php_oci8.dll
**extension=php_openssl.dll**
;extension=php_oracle.dll
;extension=php_pdf.dll
;extension=php_pgsql.dll
;extension=php_shmop.dll
;extension=php_snmp.dll
;extension=php_sockets.dll
;extension=php_sybase_ct.dll
;extension=php_tidy.dll
;extension=php_w32api.dll
;extension=php_xmlrpc.dll
;extension=php_xsl.dll
;extension=php_yaz.dll
;extension=php_zip.dll
The problem is, the extension php_soap.dll is not found there.

Solution 5 - Php
I had the same problem, there was no extension=php_soap.dll in my php.ini But this was because I had copied the php.ini from a old and previous php version (not a good idea). I found the dll in the ext directory so I just could put it myself into the php.ini extension=php_soap.dll After Apache restart all worked with soap :)

Dreamhost now includes SoapClient in their PHP 5.3 builds. You can switch your version of php in the domain setup section of the dreamhost control panel.
Solution 9 - Php
They dont support it as in in they wont help you or be responsible for you hosing anything, but you can install custom extensions. To do so you need to first set up a local install of php 5, during that process you can compile in extensions you need or you can add them dynamically to the php.ini after the fact.
Solution 10 - Php
For Ubuntu+php 5.6+nginx I used
sudo apt install php5.6-soap
sudo systemctl restart nginx
sudo systemctl restart php5.6-fpm.service
Only after that it started to work.
