To solve the questions about where to copy your PHP dll directory
files I have put together a simple set of instructions that will
help get things so that Windows can find them *without* you having
to copy them anywhere.
Please note, you still have to tell PHP in php.ini where the
extension directory is. This document only covers those files
located in the "dll" directory.
The following instructions assume the path:
C:\PHP\dll
As the path to PHP's dll directory, please substitute your path
below.
Okie, let's get on with it:
NT/2000 PATH Environment
Start->Settings->Control Panel->System->Advanced
->Environment Variables
There will be a list that contains all the environment
variables for the current user. Scroll the list until
you find the "path" entry. Click on it to highlite it.
At this point do the following:
1) Click "Edit..."
2) Click on the Variable Value edit control.
3) Make sure you move the flashing cursor to the end of the
current setting.
4) Enter the path to your PHP "DLL" directory. E.G:
"C:\PHP\dll" with a semi-colon ";" at the end.
5) Click "Ok"
6) Click "Ok" again
7) Click "Ok" one more time.
The changes take affect immediately. You will have to
close and reopen any command prompts though.
Windows 9x/ME PATH Environment
You are going to have to edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT, it will be
located in the root directory of your boot drive. In a default
installation it will be:
C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT
Hang on, here we go:
Start->Run...
1) Type: notepad c:\autoexec.bat
2) Click "Ok"
If notepad asks to create the file, click "Yes".
3) Add the following line to the *end* of the file:
PATH=%PATH%;C:\PHP\dll;
4) Click File->Save
5) Click File->Exit
6) Restart your system.
