Bug #10405 Updated: pdf: Unable to initilize module

ID: 10405 Updated by: jmoore Reported By: john@neutralize.com Old-Status: Open Status: Closed Bug Type: Dynamic loading PHP Version: 4.0.4pl1 Assigned To: Comments: you need to compile your php.exe/.dll with the same sources as your pdf.dll. this is the cause of your error message. - James Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-04-19 12:00:43] john@neutralize.com 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:Inetpubwwwrootpdf (with files in) and to get it to pick up the dll I created C:Inetpubwwwrootdll 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:Inetpubwwwrootdll" 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 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION! Do NOT reply to this email!
