I use com_load_typelib to load COM constants. The result of calling com_load_typelib always returns true. However, the constants are defined on the first call and undefined for each subsequent call to the page I am testing. This is true when I go away from the page or switch browsers. Apparently restarting the web server (Apache) resets the system state and I can see the constants again, but on the first call only. OS: Windows Server 2008 PHP Version: 5.2.6 In php.ini: com.allow_dcom = true com.autoregister_typelib = true com.autoregister_casesensitive = false com.autoregister_verbose = true ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
