configure: error: Cannot find OpenSSL's about mongo-php-library

[gphargreaves]

You should be able to install it using:

yum install -y openssl-devel

However my usual distro is Debian based so I am used to apt :-) you may have to troubleshoot syntax of that command.

Try installing after that and it should hopefully find the required OpenSSL source

What Linux distro are you running?

It seems like you are missing the OpenSSL or OpenSSL-dev packages.

I'm running CentOS 7 is there a yum package for it?

Sweet it installed! just one last thing mate.
Build process completed successfully Installing '/usr/lib64/php/modules/mongodb.so' install ok: channel://pecl.php.net/mongodb-1.1.2 configuration option "php_ini" is not set to php.ini location You should add "extension=mongodb.so" to php.ini

i can't find the php.ini file and people say to create a <?php phpinfo(); ?> but i cant open php files on my browser.
lastly i get permision denied from:

[jose@localhost ~]$ sudo echo "extension=mongodb.so" >> php --ini | grep "Loaded Configuration" | sed -e "s|.*:\s*||"
bash: /etc/php.ini: Permission denied

sorry for all the trouble im giving you.
