Hi Robert, Thanks for your information. Does it mean that PEAR:DB is not fully independent module? It still requires some special compilation in PHP compiler. -stan --- Robert Munteanu [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Mon, 2004-01-19 at 10:40, Stanley Chan wrote: Hi Lukas, Do you mean that there are some tricky steps I should follow?

Re: [PHP-DB] Re: [PEAR] DB Module Extension Problem
In my windows PHP installation i have to uncomment i line in the php.ini file that has something like: ;extension=mssql.dll you have to configure your php ini file. Set extensions dir and uncomment the mssql.dll (you will probably have mssql.so or something like that) In my case the dll's where included by default in my installation. I remeber that there was a section in the php.ini in which you could configure some mssql params but i dont remeber if that was needed. it looks like: [mssql] mssql.x= mssql.x= I didnt need to do any compilation to make it work, just uncommented some lines and set the extensions dirs. See your phpinfo() and look if the mssql was loadded (of curse it wasnt because you had that error message.) hope it helps. - Original Message - From: Stanley Chan [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Robert Munteanu [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Lukas Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED]; PEAR general list [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 19, 2004 3:18 PM Subject: [PHP-DB] Re: [PEAR] DB Module Extension Problem Hi Robert, Thanks for your information.

This is true even for MySQL. You could also try looking for precompiled shared extensions ( .so files ). But from now on this is a completely a PHP configuration issue, not a PEAR one. -- Robert Munteanu [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
