libssh2 extension

[BLUEPEPSi]

Hello everyone,

I would like to install php ssh2 extension so I can run a game server panel on my VPS. The only problem is that the most of the tutorials I see aren't suited for VPS, because when a package needs to be downloaded such as "yum install libssh2" or something, it does not work. www.libssh2.org is also down for me, so I can not access it.

All I need to do is install SSH2 PHP extension the easiest way I can. Whether it is through WHM or just SSH

I am running Centos 5, apache2, php5.

Thanks.

From manual PHP: Requirements - Manual , you need both openssl and ssh2 libraries. Try:

yum install libssh2-devel openssl-devel

Is there any update to this? "No package libssh2-devel available" is what I see.

Is there any update to this? "No package libssh2-devel available" is what I see.

The packages libssh2 and libssh2-devel are available from third-party OS update repositories used by YUM, such as EPEL (Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux). You would need to match your RHEL or CentOS version to the appropriate EPEL release; please refer to the official EPEL web site for documentation and usage information: EPEL/FAQ - FedoraProject

Is there any better help for this?

I am trying to install PECL SSH2:

What's the problem here? Where is libssh2?
