#19423 [Com]: Problem with extension_dir in PHP.ini

ID: 19423 Comment by: cbrady@sbccd.cc.ca.us Reported By: cdfisher@swbell.net Status: Feedback Bug Type: *Web Server problem Operating System: Windows 9x/NT/ME/2000/XP PHP Version: 4.2.3 New Comment: Same issue. However, its it a requirement that the php directory be on the c: drive? I have the same problem with any php version I install on the Win2k Server. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-21 14:27:49] iliaa@php.net try changing 'c:\php\extensions' to 'c:\\php\\extensions' or 'c:/php/extensions' and see if it begins to work. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-16 08:32:29] cdfisher@swbell.net Oh yeah, I forgot to add that all the pertinent files for this extension are in the %system% directory! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-16 08:29:45] cdfisher@swbell.net To mficher: If you can give me some cookbook instructions on how to use this tool, then I would be glad to give it a try. It looks as though it needs a running process, but the error occurs when I start IIS. How can I accomplish what you need? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-16 03:24:32] mfischer@php.net Is there a chance to use the strace tool [1] to track what's going on/wrong here? This tool may help tracking down which directory/files are really accessed.

So I reclassified it to WebServer-Problem. MicroWeb specific: Setting the extension_dir is not possible. Specifying a directory in the php.ini has no affect, although other settings can be configured fine... Microweb supports PHP only over CGI-Interface. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
