Bug description:  Berkeley DB3 and the DBA functions

I have noticed that a similar bug has been reported (Bug id #11732) -
however I can report more details and I have another script with
interesting results.

First: the code that was provided in #11732

[code]
<?php
if(!$fp = dba_open("test.db", "c", "db3")) {
        print("error");
        exit;
}
dba_insert("testkey", "testval", $fp);
echo( dba_fetch("testkey", $fp));
dba_close($fp);
?>

[/code]
[output]
Warning: driver initialization failed in
/usr/local/apache/htdocs/www-root/neaturl.com/temp/test.php on line 3
error
[/output]
But get this - test.db is created!

The above code was called through from my browser (thus through the Apache
web server)

Here is a link to a snapshot of my php config at the time I ran that
code:

http://neaturl.com/temp/phpinfo-0109181613.html


Now - here is the twist! If I call the same script (adding the path to the
php binary) from bash, it runs fine!

[code]
#!/usr/local/bin/php
<?php

if(!$fp = dba_open("test.db", "c", "db3")) { 
        print("error"); 
        exit; 
} 
dba_insert("testkey", "testval", $fp); 
echo( dba_fetch("testkey", $fp)); 
dba_close($fp); 
?>
[/code]
[output]
X-Powered-By: PHP/4.0.6
Content-type: text/html

testval
[/output]

Actually, I came accross this problem because I had written a php script to
initialize the postfix/virtual.db (which I ran from bash and had written a
php script to read and output the key:value pairs (which again I ran OK
from bash). But when I tried to run the same script by calling it from my
browser - no cigar!

Now I am assuming this is a bug. I would be delighted to learn that perhaps
I have missed configuring something in php.ini
