Default Iconv not working on php4.3.3

Hey everyone,
Sorry for a question on an outdated PHP, but I am trying to get iconv working on php4.3.3. When I enable it in php.ini by removing the ; from the ;extension=php_iconv.dll
line, php pages simply refuse to load.

Can anyone point me in the right direction as to how to successfully enable iconv?

Cheers,
Jimmy

did you check that the iconv.dll and php_iconv.dll are in their place?

Yes iconv.dll is in the dll folder and php_iconv.dll is in the extensions folder...

then the only thing on my mind is to have a look at the server logs.

This error message appears in the system log, however I am certain the file is there...

Application popup: Warning : Unknown(): Unable to load dynamic library 'E:\PHP\extensions\php_iconv.dll' - The specified module could not be found.

Copying the iconv.dll and php_iconv.dll to the windows/system32 folder seems to have fixed it.

Thanks anyway.
