Make sure that you run '/usr/bin/phpize' in the top level source directory of the module

ERROR: `phpize' failed

Answer 1

download the file, uncompress and cd to the folder, then do pecl build

Answer 2

Download from https://pecl.php.net/package/SCA_SDO

unzip and change into that folder und run

phpize
./configure
make clean && make && make install

nano php.ini
 add extension=yourextension.so
