Gmp library error

🍱 Features & apps bookmarks
1

Hi,

I just installed NextcloudPi image on my raspberry pi 4. I’m trying to install the bookmarks app and I’m getting this error:
App “Bookmarks” cannot be installed because the following dependencies are not fulfilled: The library gmp is not available.

I appreciate if you could help. Thanks.

The fix is as easy as it is apparent. Install the php gmp extension :wink:

Is this the right one:
sudo apt-get install libgmp-dev

It should be something like this:
https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=all&searchon=names&keywords=php%20gmp

Hi guys, I got the same error. After I installed the missing library with " sudo apt-get install libgmp-dev"
the error still occurs.

Thanks for support

@ipaschalis Ah, that was the wrong one. it should be something like php{7.1,7.2}-gmp

Still the same error, ist it important to have a gmp version installed?

You probably need to restart the webserver. Something like sudo service apache2 restart

But what if Nextcloud was installed from a snap? “sudo apt install php-gmp” doesn’t install php-gmp into the snap.

Danger alert: if you are running Nextcloud from a ver. 15 snap, don’t upgrade your bookmarks app to 2.1.1! Stay on version 1.1.1

See here for solution.

self install of NC-17 on Ubuntu Server using: https://www.c-rieger.de/nextcloud-installation-guide-ubuntu-18-04/

Saw this notice, too while trying to install the bookmarks app and fixed it via:

sudo apt-get install php-gmp
sudo service php7.3-fpm restart
sudo service nginx restart

If anyone here is a docker wizard, feel free to help out on this pull request: https://github.com/nextcloud/docker/pull/863

Hi, so please update the Requirements on https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/bookmarks.
There is no hint GMP is required.
Thanks, Mac

It’s not required anymore in the latest version, that’s why it’s not in the requirements.

Thanks, works now. First I update to latest version 3.1.1 on NC 17.01. Then gmp error appear “App can’t be installed - missing gmp extension”. After Deactivate and then Reactivate the App everything works fine.
Maybe an update routine problem from NC itself.
Thanks
