Unable to install the pdo_firebird extension on arm64 (Alpine Linux) #465

rdrenth · 2021-11-25T20:58:38Z

Running the command install-php-extensions pdo_firebird fails on aarch64 / arm64 architecture and distro alpine with php version 7.4

Any idea if this can be made so it works on arm64 aswell?

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

I don't have an arm64 device at hand.
Could you tell me when this error occurs?
In order to know that, you can mimic what the install-php-extension script does: that is, could you run these commands and tell me which one fails?

Thanks already for taking the time to look at this.

I've executed the commands 1 by 1 using the php:7.4-alpine image and the command that fails is ./configure --with-system-icu.

The output of that is pretty much the same as above:

I'm not sure this can be fixed with the 2.5.9 version, as I don't see the used asset in amd64 version, only for CS and SS there are amd64 versions at: https://github.com/FirebirdSQL/firebird/releases/tag/R2_5_9

mlocati · 2022-01-11T16:57:20Z

#496 could probably fix this issue.
@rdrenth could you check that in your arm device?

It should be as easy as running:

curl -fLo install-php-extensions https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mlocati/docker-php-extension-installer/f5ca99772104a792888dcf5d526d5e29afd4acd4/install-php-extensions
chmod +x install-php-extensions
export CI=1
./install-php-extensions pdo_firebird

rdrenth · 2022-01-12T15:31:10Z

I've executed the commands as provided, but the result is pretty much the same.

It seems that aarch64 isn't supported by firebird 3.

I tried to compile firebird 4 on Alpine Linux v3.15.
The configure command succeeds (and it should succeed for you too since it comes with a more recent version of config.guess that supports aarch64), but the compilation fails with this error:

(even if the script installs icu-libs 69.1-r1, icu (69.1-r1 and icu-dev 69.1-r1)

We should report these issues to the Firebird maintainers...

rdrenth · 2022-01-17T19:13:39Z

It seems there is some work being done in this PR regarding M1 support: FirebirdSQL/firebird#7073

rdrenth · 2022-02-14T13:24:41Z

Looks like Firebird v4.0.2 will add support for it, but it's not yet released: FirebirdSQL/firebird#7041 (comment)

rdrenth · 2022-09-16T11:51:16Z

@mlocati Firebird v4.0.2 is finally released: https://github.com/FirebirdSQL/firebird/releases/tag/v4.0.2 and it comes with "Firebird port for Apple M1 architecture".

Can we attempt to make this work? If you need me to test / try anything, let me know. Thanks!

mlocati · 2022-09-16T12:54:04Z

@rdrenth I've just tried to build firebird 4.0.2 on Alpine, without luck:

$ mkdir -p /tmp/src
$ cd /tmp/src
$ curl -sSL -o - \

[omissis, repeated 7 times ]

Please install required library 'tommath' before firebird, after it repeat firebird install

So, we have two problems here:

the firebird install script doesn't seem compatible with Alpine Linux
installing firebird 4 requires the tommath system library, which isn't available on Alpine

rdrenth · 2022-09-19T09:54:35Z

Thanks for your continued effort with this issue, I'd say we're kind of out of options to make this work and we should close the issue.

mlocati · 2022-09-19T10:12:33Z

If you need it, you should file an issue at https://github.com/FirebirdSQL/firebird/issues to ask them to support Alpine Linux...
