RE: [PHP-INSTALL] Extensions location

I tried that and even though php-config says extension-dir = /my/extension/folder when I do a make install it goes to /my/extension/folder/non-debug-non-zts-20100525 all I want is to get rid of that non-debug-non-zts-20100525 Any other ideas?

The build script specific settings are all based on the --prefix argument, so you can easily change where php will be installed including extensions, libs, executables even pear. What you are after though might be a little more tricky but I've had some success tweaking the scripts/config.in source file which in itself will look at certain environment variables lets have a look for you shall we? In your case the setting is: extension_dir='@EXTENSION_DIR@' Which you can edit directly before running configure or setting the environment variable export EXTENSION_DIR=/tmp/my/extensions You can also place it before the configure commend like this EXTENSION_DIR=/tmp/my/extensions ./configure What have we? It would appear luck is your good fortune, the setting did change and the file scripts/php-config correctly reports. --extension-dir [/tmp/my/extensions] nJoy!
