(Don't write to me telling me to use linux, i dont want to, this is my home machine not a production server, thank you, now if you really want to help keep on reading)
I got a most recent copy of PHP 5.01 extracted into "C:\php" and everything seems to be working fine as long as i dont ask to load extensions. Any extension that i try to add will fail to load and i'm clueless. At first in the PHP.ini file this was the original directive: ; Directory in which the loadable extensions (modules) reside. extension_dir = "./" And it would not work so i changed it to a hardcoded path ; Directory in which the loadable extensions (modules) reside. extension_dir = "C:\php\ext" Still no extensions wont load. Whats the weirdest, all the DLLs are at the correct location, apache reports: "PHP startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'C:\php\ext\php_mysql.dll' - The specified module could not be found." but it IS there, at the exact location, i even looked and compared both paths manually letter by letter. Another weird thing to note is that some extensions DO load while some don't, here is a list of the extensions that i'm loading and which one fails (Note ALL extensions DLL are indeed in the folder intended, they just dont load) extension=php_bz2.dll extension=php_gd2.dll extension=php_imap.dll extension=php_mysql.dll <<< fails but it's vital to me these extensions are activated, only mysql fails, but there are other i wanted earlier lemme see which ones: (These would be nice to have, i'll tell you which one fails too) ;extension=php_exif.dll <<< fails ;extension=php_ldap.dll <<< fails (The file really isnt there so it's not a real problem) ;extension=php_openssl.dll <<< fails ;extension=php_pdf.dll ;extension=php_pgsql.dll ;extension=php_snmp.dll ;extension=php_sockets.dll ;extension=php_tidy.dll ;extension=php_zip.dll All of these will load... Soooo I'm stuck there, i need help, tell me if you need to know anything else. i'll be glad to give you info, i want to set this up to further my PHP developement at home. We intensively use PHP4 at work but i wanted to start working on PHP5 to see how good it is.
