Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=69907&edit=1 ID: 69907 User updated by: leon at leonidasjp dot nl Reported by: leon at leonidasjp dot nl Summary: Initialization error php_mbstring.dll (Compiled with wrong Module API) -Status: Feedback +Status: Closed Type: Bug Package: mbstring related Operating System: Windows 8.1 Pro 64 bits PHP Version: 7.0.0alpha1 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: The output indeed shows mbstring included in the enabled modules-list. After altering php.ini's Extension path to "C:\php7\ext", the extension now shows up in phpinfo (thus gets loaded). Path was "./ext", what somehow did not work as intended... Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-06-23 09:25:59] ab@php.net It's most likely a configuration issue. You should ensure you're loading the DLL from the correct path. Also be sure you're using VC14 Apache builds. To double check it, please do the following on console while in the 7.0.0alpha1 dir php.exe -n -d extension_dir=ext -d extension=php_mbstring.dll -m The mbstring should appear. Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-06-23 08:14:53] leon at leonidasjp dot nl Description: ------------ I installed php 7.0 alpha 1, VC14, 64 bits, Thread Safe build last week and activated the php_mbstring.dll extension by uncommenting the line in php.ini. When starting Apache (2.4) and loading phpinfo(), the mbstring-configuration does not show up, and an error log is generated with the following entry: [23-Jun-2015 07:56:20 UTC] PHP Warning: PHP Startup: mbstring: Unable to initialize module Module compiled with module API=20131226 PHP compiled with module API=20141001 These options need to match in Unknown on line 0 I am using the mbstring-module which is bundled in the Alpha 1 zip file. I also tried replacing it by the mbstring-module from all other Alpha 1-builds (both x86 and x64, TS and NTS), but these all generate the same error. It seems the bundled library has been mis-built... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=69907&edit=1
