Installing phalcon on Linux Mint

I am unable to install phalcon php extension by following these steps.

I use 64-bit Linux Mint 14 Nadia.

https://docs.phalcon.io/en/latest/reference/install.html#linux-solaris-mac

For the Prerequisite packages I use:

https://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/installing-php5-and-apache-on-ubuntu/ https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingCompilers

Git is working fine.

I really follow steps straight forward, once I am finish I edit /etc/php5/cli/php.ini ny adding extension=phalcon.so just before module settings section.

Then i restart apache with command sudo service apache2 restart

After installing phalcon dev tools and running command

phalcon create-project proj_name it reports

phalcon: command not found

I have tried the same steps with installing xammp, I did not have luck also.

Am I doing something wrong in the process?

What you also need is the "dev tools" to be able to execute the tools scripts in command line:
