Bug #65476 [Com]: php_gettext.dll will not load

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65476&edit=1 ID: 65476 Comment by: mastermnd at gmail dot com Reported by: mastermnd at gmail dot com Summary: php_gettext.dll will not load Status: Feedback Type: Bug Package: Dynamic loading Operating System: Windows 7 x64 PHP Version: 5.5.2 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: My apologies, apparently some 3rd party program installed 32bit gettext libraries under some path under c:\windows which was taking precedence in the path. FastCGI had no problems because it redefines its own variables instead of relying on those set by windows. I created a new user and hardcoded its PATH and everything worked. Why this worked with 5.5.0 and not with 5.5.[1-2] makes absolutely no sense to me, but there you have it. Please close this ticket.

Can you try in CLI as well please? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-08-19 08:29:45] mastermnd at gmail dot com By the way, I just redownloaded 5.5.0, and using exactly THE SAME config, gettext loads fine. It's definitely a problem in 5.5.1 and 5.5.2 Up to you if you prefer to ignore it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-08-19 08:25:07] mastermnd at gmail dot com Sorry but if you are running the command from C:\temp\5.5.2nts> you probably haven't read my report carefully. My path is set up correctly, since all other extensions load fine, and so is my config. Previous versions of PHP were loading the extesion just fine too. If i change both apache and php to 32-bit, the extension also loads. It's only 64bit *thread-safe* (mod-php) that shows this behaviour. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-08-19 07:53:29] pajoye@php.net works just fine.

With PHP versions 5.5.1 and 5.5.2, I get the following error when starting: PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'C:\\php\\bin\\ts\\ext\\php_gettext.dll' - The specified module could not be found.\r\n in Unknown on line 0 Needless to say, the DLL exists in the right path, permissions are ok [other modules work fine!] If I load alternative config files and start PHP 5.5.2 x64 NTS with mod_fcgi 2.3.7, then php_gettext.dll loads fine. I am reporting this because I suspect there is a compilation or packaging issue with the TS version. Alternatively, the DLL might have a new dependency that i'm not aware of? iconv.dll or similar that is missing? Regards. Test script: --------------- I am using a copy of php-production.ini with the following modules list (in this order): zend_extension="C:\php\bin\ts\php_xdebug-2.2.3-5.5-vc11-x86_64.dll" extension=php_mbstring.dll extension=php_bz2.dll extension=php_curl.dll extension=php_fileinfo.dll extension=php_gd2.dll extension=php_gettext.dll extension=php_mysql.dll extension=php_mysqli.dll extension=php_openssl.dll extension=php_pdo_mysql.dll extension=php_soap.dll Expected result: ---------------- I should be able to load the module but I can't. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65476&edit=1
