you should take a look at the output of phpinfo() To know if the extension is enabled.

The documentation stats that it's enabled by default on PHP 5.3, so make sure your PHP version is >= 5.3. If not there is a PECL extension.

This extension is enabled by default as of PHP 5.3.0. Before this time, fileinfo was a PECL extension but is no longer maintained there.
