PHP5/ Apache strange install problem

[Daniel Loose]

hello,

try to install php 5.2 on apache 1.3 on winxp. apache is fine. php
says on start "unable to load dynamic library '<path>' " -- but <path>
*does* exist!

extension_dir ="C:\Programme\ PHP\ext"

and <pathis e.g. 'C:\Programme\P HP\ext\php_exif .dll'. which *does*
exist. this appears with about 20 files. reboot, reinstall, nothing
helped.

php.ini only exists once, in c:/windows. in httpd.conf i have the line
LoadModule php5_module "C:/Programme/PHP/php5apache.dll"
PATH also includes the path to php. so i really dont know whats going
on here...

thank you very much!!

Daniel,

I always use forward slashes in my directories,i.e .

extension_dir=" c:/Programme/PHP/ext/"

Also, note that the directory ends with a '/'.

Also, in the particular case of php_exif.dll, php_mbstring.dl l must be
loaded first (in the list before php_exif.dll).

You didn't list any other modules, so not sure that that problem would be.

If nothing else, comment out all extensions and try it. Then try
loading them one at a time.

BTW - why are you still on Apache 1.3?

It can be that an extension dll requires some other dll that doesn't
exist or is not in your path. I'd suggest you install FileMon from
sysinternals.co m and look what files Apache is trying to access.

Hi, Gosha -

Good though - I'd forgotten about FileMon. It's a great tool for things
like this. Thanks for reminding me.
