It's not possible to create databases with the DB file format (or access method) Hash, Queue and Recno. See: http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/api_c/db_open.html http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/gsg/C/accessmethods.html This limitation should be mentioned in the manual at: http://de.php.net/manual/en/function.dba-open.php http://de.php.net/manual/en/dba.requirements.php Don't have the sources for db3/2. Maybe it's similar there. Regards, Carsten ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=48335&edit=1
