I am compiling against PHP 8.3. See for full build logs: https://github.com/shyim/wolfi-php/actions/runs/13742722967/job/38433836013?pr=869

[Jeckerson]

Could you provide commands that are executed?

[shyim]

phpize
./configure
make install

[Jeckerson]

Ideally install it via pecl, but it seems that build/ directory wasn't regenerated...
@shyim Could you try to compile from this PR - #16723 ?

[shyim]

still failing

pecl build works. so there must be something still different

[shyim]

nvm pecl build fails too
https://gist.githubusercontent.com/shyim/cac959cd2fe44af813ff4d89bf8ae94f/raw/c0d025284b51b12071cdd1aba55afe2c84142aed/build.log

maybe because I compile with an too new compiler? GCC 14.2.0

[zz]

From PHP 8.3.14, both 5.8.0 and 5.9.0 has the same error, install with pecl failed

[elcreator]

Same with PHP 8.4 on Alpine with enough memory

docker build --memory=5g --memory-swap=6g

FROM php:8.4-fpm-alpine

USER root
ARG PHALCON_VERSION=5.9.0
ARG PHP_VERSION=8.4
ARG PHPIZE_DEPS="autoconf gcc g++ make"
RUN apk add --update $PHPIZE_DEPS
RUN ln -s /usr/local/bin/phpize /usr/local/bin/phpize${PHP_VERSION}
RUN whoami | tee /tmp/whoami.log
RUN cat /proc/meminfo | tee /tmp/meminfo.log
RUN pecl update-channels | tee /tmp/pecl.update.log
RUN pecl -d php_suffix=${PHP_VERSION} install phalcon-${PHALCON_VERSION} | tee /tmp/phalcon.install.log
RUN echo "extension=phalcon.so" | tee $PHP_INI_DIR/conf.d/55_phalcon.ini
USER www-data

Everything ok with rights, pecl and memory.

Have you tried the solution from #16680
