Function : bcmod is not available

I'm getting the following error while installing one of a joomla component.

Function : bcmod is not available. Please ask your hosts how you can enable this function in your PHP installation.

Is needed install the library at Debian 10, also to do remove expired key of the repository before to install the bcmath

apt-key list 2>/dev/null | grep expired -B 1
apt-key del 95BD4743
apt-key list | grep expired
wget -O /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/deb.sury.gpg https://packages.sury.org/php/apt.gpg
apt-get update
apt install php7.2-bcmath
systemctl restart apache2

You can install the bcmath package using installer. I am using CentOS so my commands are relatively different. You can use according to your OS.

yum install php-bcmath

Once you install the package,

If you are using php-fpm then you need to restart php-fpm service using

systemctl restart php-fpm

You need to restart http server at last

systemctl restart nginx

If you have a dedicated server, try the solution given here https://stackoverflow.com/a/25229386/8015825.

Before recompiling, check the php.ini file and search for "bcmath". You may find bcmath.scale=0. If so, change the 0 to a 2.

And then restart your http server

you need your PHP to be compiled with bcmath support (--enable-bcmath configure option). If you're on shared hosting it is unlikely they will enable it for you. So you can try a solution from PHP manual from this page: http://ru.php.net/manual/en/function.bcmod.php I haven't tried it , but you can test it:

/** 
 * my_bcmod - get modulus (substitute for bcmod) 
 * string my_bcmod ( string left_operand, int modulus ) 
 * left_operand can be really big, but be carefull with modulus :( 
 * by Andrius Baranauskas and Laurynas Butkus :) Vilnius, Lithuania 
 **/ 
function my_bcmod( $x, $y ) 
{ 
    // how many numbers to take at once? carefull not to exceed (int) 
    $take = 5;     
    $mod = ''; 

    do 
    { 
        $a = (int)$mod.substr( $x, 0, $take ); 
        $x = substr( $x, $take ); 
        $mod = $a % $y;    
    } 
    while ( strlen($x) ); 

    return (int)$mod; 
} 

// example 
echo my_bcmod( "7044060001970316212900", 150 );
