Here are some steps to compile and install the php-wkhtmltox PHP extension. The paths below are valid for most standard Centos/RH installations - you should check and adapt them according to your flavour of Linux. On your server: 1) Download the wkhtmltopdf src package cd /tmp wget http://wkhtmltopdf.googlecode.com/files/wkhtmltopdf-0.11.0_rc1.tar.bz2 bunzip2 wkhtmltopdf-0.11.0_rc1.tar.bz2 tar -xvf wkhtmltopdf-0.11.0_rc1.tar 2) Download the pre-compiled libwkhtmltox static library cd /tmp wget http://wkhtmltopdf.googlecode.com/files/libwkhtmltox-0.11.0_rc1-i386.tar.bz2 bunzip2 libwkhtmltox-0.11.0_rc1-i386.tar.bz2 tar -xvf libwkhtmltox-0.11.0_rc1-i386.tar 3) Copy the library to your libraries directory (probably /usr/local/lib ) cp -v /tmp/lib/libwkhtmltox.so /usr/local/lib 3) Copy the library headers to your headers directory (probably /usr/local/include ) cp -vR /tmp/include/wkhtmltox /usr/local/include/wkhtmltox 4) Download the PHP extension source cd /tmp wget --no-check-certificate https://github.com/mreiferson/php-wkhtmltox/tarball/master tar -xvzf master 5) Compile and install the extension cd /tmp/mreiferson-php-wkhtmltox-fa6208e phpize ./configure --with-phpwkhtmltox=/tmp/wkhtmltopdf-0.11.0_rc1 make make install 6) Edit your php.ini file to load the extension cp /etc/php.ini /etc/php.bak echo "extension=phpwkhtmltox.so" >> /etc/php.ini 7) Reload your webserver and test apachectl restart - creates a test image file called /tmp/test.jpg cd /tmp/mreiferson-php-wkhtmltox-fa6208e php test_image.php - creates a test pdf files called /tmp/test1.pdf cd /tmp/mreiferson-php-wkhtmltox-fa6208e php test_pdf.php
