Bug #10405: pdf: Unable to initilize module

From: john@neutralize.com Operating system: Windows 98 PHP version: 4.0.4pl1 PHP Bug Type: Dynamic loading Bug description: pdf: Unable to initilize module I have downloaded pdflib-4.0.0-Windows so I can pdf things in php. The installation instructions are as follows: "For building the PDFlib PHP binding you must have to the directory "ext/pdf" to your PHP source tree. Then build php_pdf.dll." I did not understand this completely so have probably hashed the configuration up and as there is no other instructions I did my best. I copied the directory pdf indicated above to my wwwroot (as I am using pws for testing) ie C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\pdf (with files in) and to get it to pick up the dll I created C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\dll to place php_pdf.dll in and uncommented extension=php_pdf.dll in php.ini along with pointing to the dll directory by uncommenting extension_dir="C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\dll" This all seemed really messy and obviously not configured correctly but the readme file did not give any more explanations. The full error message that appears now when I try to load any php page is as follows: pdf: Unable to initilize module Module compiled with debug=0, thread-safety=1, module API=20001222 PHP complied with debug=0, thread-safety=1, module API=20001214 These options need to match With the unix installation instructions the c++ code needs compiling but does not mention it for Windows, does this mean I don't have to make the c++ code? I will be grateful for any help on resolving this. Thanks John -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=10405&edit=1
