Troubleshooting

Ubuntu / OSX

Snappy requires C++ and therefore might require for you to install the g++ or build-essential package.

If you get an error about "this file requires compiler and library support" or compilation errors on OSX, you need to enforce the compilation with -std=c++11 flag:

export CXXFLAGS=-std=c++11 phpize ./configure make
