Resolution

Please see the troubleshooting steps below, for ensuring that the Excimer extension is installed and enabled correctly.

Check PHP Version:

Verify the PHP version you are using. We suggest upgrading to version 8.2 at least. Run the following command to check your PHP version:

php -v

Ensure The Excimer Extension is Enabled:

Ensure the extension is enabled for the correct PHP version. Run the following command:

    • php -m
    • Confirm that "excimer" appears in the list of enabled modules.

    • If not, use the following command to install and configure the Excimer profiler:

    • sudo apt-get install php-excimer

Verify the Excimer extension is installed in the correct PHP version folder:

Check the directory where Excimer is installed:

ls /etc/php

Restart the service:

After re-installing the Excimer extension, restart the php-fpm service:

service php8.1-fpm restart

Finally:

Check the official Excimer documentation for any specific instructions or troubleshooting steps related to your PHP version. Consider trying alternative installation methods suggested in the Excimer documentation.
