edit PHP ini file under linux problems

I am getting the follow when trying to create a SOAP connection in PHP

AutoLoader did not find file for 'SoapClient'!

I also checked in my phpinfo() file and i do not see anything mechining SOAP so i take it that SOAP is not installed (enabled?) on the server?

So if that is true, how would i go about installing SOAP? Is it as simple as editing the php.ini file with the following:

extension=php_soap.dll
extension_dir = "<full path to the 'ext' directory>"

and making sure i have php_soap.dll in the ext path?

But theres a problem with that as well. Its running on a linux server and we do not (or can not find an option) to edit the ini file or even get to it using Parallels.

The server is running PHP Version 5.3.3 with Apache Version 20051115

Using a debian derivative (like ubuntu)

sudo apt-get install php-soap

Maybe you must restart the server after that.

use sudo nano /dir/to/php/intall/php.ini enter the password for (kinda) root user and make sure to write out the data before you exit nano.

Then restart your apache2 service through sudo service apache2 restart and enjoy :)
