From: Dave at Yost dot com Operating system: linux PHP version: 5.1.4 PHP Bug Type: Dynamic loading Bug description: Unable to load dynamic library should say where it looked Description: ------------ Error message is not helpful. A good error message could save thousands of hours of people's time worldwide. Expected result: ---------------- Unable to load dynamic library './mysql.so' - ./mysql.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in '/usr/lb', '/lib,', '/usr/local/apache/php/extensions'. Change blah in php.ini or recompile with the -with-blah=foo' option to fix this problem. Actual result: -------------- Unable to load dynamic library './mysql.so' - ./mysql.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory And "Incorrect CAPTCHA" at the top of this bug reporting page should instead be red text next to the thing that is wrong.
