ID: 24749 Comment by: mgturland at yahoo dot com Reported By: michael at insitesinc dot com Status: Open Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: winXP Pro PHP Version: 5.0.0b1 (beta1) New Comment:
Same problem, running on Windows XP Pro with Apache 1.3.29 and PHP 5.0b2. I tried running "php.exe -i" as install.txt recommended, and got this error: php.exe - Unable to Locate Component This application has failed to start because iconv.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem. Once I copied iconv.dll to the root PHP directory, it seemed to work without any problem. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-07-22 02:11:22] michael at insitesinc dot com this isnt a copy to system32 and problems over situation because many of us like to run multiple installations of php and have to compartmentalize the installations ensuring that no dll's are improperly used by a wrong version. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-07-22 02:06:30] michael at insitesinc dot com Description: ------------ Ok this gets pretty close to the "dont submit this bug issue" above but is not related to the name change of the php module. When you attempt to install and configure php5.0b1+ (maybe others below) to run as module of apache 2.0.47 you now must copy the file iconv.dll into either the sapi directory (in addition to php4ts.dll as well) or into another acceptable location (mentioned in regards to the thread safe dll in install.txt). Im fairly certain that this isnt an intended requirement but not sure if it my problem (although i have heard many others complain as well). If you fail to copy this dll to one of the three directories apache will produce an error on start up which says "Cannot load C:/pathto/php5/sapi/php4apache2.dll" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=24749&edit=1
