The IMAP extension is missing from your PHP installation

[Eric535]

Getting the following error:

The IMAP extension is missing from your PHP installation

I installed it via the command line and it says i already have the newest version.





Doesnt show in my phpInfo either

Running Aws Lightsail:
8 GB RAM, 2 vCPUs, 160 GB SSD
LAMP (PHP 8)
Virginia, Zone A (us-east-1a)

Most likely you need to enable it in your PHP configuration.
In phpinfo, it shows you which ini configuration file PHP loads, and also shows you what additional ini files it loads for configurations. One of those should be the imap.ini file or something similar, and that's where you need to enable the extension. Then make sure you restart your apache server and/or php if running under fpm.
This isn't really a MailWizz issue.

Did you restart your web server and/or php ?

Did you restart your web server and/or php ?

Yes

I found this: https://docs.bitnami.com/aws/infrastructure/lamp/configuration/install-modules-php/ not sure how much it helps, but it says the steps and the fact you need to restart apache and php.
If still no luck, best is get ahold of someone with linux experience to set this up for you.

@twisted1919 I need help with this. I get these emails coming to me all the time I and its annoying removing them manually

 

[twisted1919]

Did you get ahold of someone with linux background to help with this? Because as I said, our support does not cover setting up environments.

 

[Eric535]

No. I dont know where to get a hold of somebody who knows linux and mailwizz at the same time

 

[zhaoshengyun]

[Eric535]

no.

I had to write my own python script to check my emails with that subject and then unsubcribe.

@Eric535 You need to make sure that the IMAP is loaded in the PHP. Go to Backend->Miscellaneous->View PHP info.

Then scroll down and make sure that the IMAP is there. If not, then the module is not loaded.
