You may receive the error “-bash: phpize: command not found” while executing the “phpize” command. The reason is the php-devel package is not installed on the server. The easiest way to install the package is to use ‘yum’.
SSH to your server as root and execute:
# yum install php-devel
Once done, you should be able to execute the command ‘phpize’.
