when i installed wp all import plugin, it gave me this error: " Required PHP components are missing.
WP All Import requires DOMDocument, XMLReader, and XMLWriter PHP modules to be installed. These are standard features of PHP, and are necessary for WP All Import to read the files you are trying to import. Please contact your web hosting provider and ask them to install and activate the DOMDocument, XMLReader, and XMLWriter PHP modules."

Hello, all
In order to install XMLWriter on Ubuntu use:
sudo apt-get install php-xml
and then restart your web server (Apache/Nginx)
If you want to install it for specific PHP version you can use this command:
sudo apt-get install php7.3-xml
and then again restart your web server.
For CentOS:
yum install libxml2
yum install php-xmlwriter
yum install php-xml
Once this is done you’ll need to restart the web server.
You can also check with a phpinfo file if the extension is enabled or use the following command in your terminal:
php -i | grep xmlwriter
The output should be:
root@digitalocean:~# php -i | grep xmlwriter
/etc/php/7.2/cli/conf.d/20-xmlwriter.ini,
xmlwriter
Hope that this helps! Regards, Alex
These modules are packaged separately by Ubuntu (assuming that you are using Ubuntu).
The following should resolve the problem:
Ubuntu 14.04
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install php5-xml
Ubuntu 16.04
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install php7.0-xml
