Bug #70142 [NEW]: Default extension directory is absolute instead of relative

From: mgcummings at yahoo dot com Operating system: Windows 7 PHP version: 7.0.0beta2 Package: Dynamic loading Bug Type: Bug Bug description:Default extension directory is absolute instead of relative Description: ------------ Install PHP 7 anywhere without setting extension_dir option in php.ini and using extension=example.dll and php reports it can't find extension in c:/php/example.dll. Per the comments in the included example php.ini files and the default with past versions the built-in default should be a relative path of "./ext/" on Windows which match the actually location in the build. It is also clear that an absolute path is being used for the default as well since the actual path to my install is d:/php7.0/beta2/ meaning it should be looking in d:/php7.0/beta2/ext/ for the DLLs. Test script: --------------- echo %PATH% php.exe --version Expected result: ---------------- Not report missing extension DLLs. Actual result: -------------- D:\php-7.0\beta2;C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'C:\php\php_bz2.dll' - The specified module could not be found. in Unknown on line 0 -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=70142&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70142&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70142&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70142&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70142&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70142&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70142&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70142&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70142&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70142&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70142&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70142&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70142&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70142&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70142&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70142&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70142&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70142&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70142&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70142&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=70142&r=mysqlcfg
