OAuth is a secure authorization protocol that allows applications to access data without requiring the storage of usernames and passwords. To install the PHP OAuth library, follow these steps:

  • Download the PHP OAuth 1.2.3 DLL Thread Safe (TS) x86.
  • Extract the downloaded file and copy the “php_oauth.dll” file to the “C:\php\ext” directory.
  • Open the php.ini configuration file and add the following line under the windows extensions section, after “;extension=php_xsl.dll“
extension=php_oauth.dll
  • Save the changes to the php.ini file, restart the web server, and check the phpinfo() function. The new extension should be listed in its own section.
