ID: 9266 Comment by: moufid dot zeribi at murex dot com Reported by: mikemyers at swi dot hu Summary: Unable to load 14 of php's extensions Status: Wont fix Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Feature/Change Request Operating System: WinMe, Win98, Win2000 PHP Version: 4.0.4pl1 New Comment: This issue is reproductible under Win2003 Server - IIS6 - PHP 5.3.2. That would be great to update the status of this ticket for the latest PHP version. Regards Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-05-04 15:06:57] paj...@php.net We are sorry, but we can not support PHP 4 related problems anymore. Momentum is gathering for PHP 6, and we think supporting PHP 4 will lead to a waste of resources which we want to put into getting PHP 6 ready. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-12-23 12:35:41] vishonly at yahoo dot co dot in i completly agree i also spend almost 2 days for connecting to remote sybase server couldnot load php_sybase_ct.dll i know it requires other files like libct.dll but how to get them i know its not php bug but atleast the ppl who have worked on this can reply ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-06 13:34:13] irc-h...@php.net The extensions are all (mostly) listed in a table at http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.php#install.windows.extensions which also lists if the extension is dependent upon a specific library (another dll). Most of the extension documentation also lists 'You need xxx to use this extension', or 'In order to use this extension you need to install xxx', etc. I think it is clearly documented in the manual. A possibility would be to improve the error message, perhaps 'php_xxx.dll: This extension requires xxx library installed', something simliar would be helpful. Changing to feature request. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-06 13:18:40] j...@php.net so better documentation is needed for extensions that rely on external libraries. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-02-14 20:07:11] mikemyers at swi dot hu Yes, a more detailed error message, or/and two more lines in the manual could have saved me some time. And maybe it would for others too. Thank you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
