And I get an error. I tested on another Vista machine and an XP virtual machine, and I did NOT get the error, so it's something wonky in my configuration.
When I clear my %PATH% variable, the error goes away. The culprit is *some* DLL in C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2008a\bin\win32. So this entirely not a PHP problem. Thanks for looking into it!
We see similar problems with installations of Firebird. It's surprising how many packages use Firebird embeded, but windows finds their copy of the client before the 'real' copy. I just installed a couple of machines at a site where I found windows VISTA already had the client installed - and we have no idea where from. Since it is a recent copy it has to be something new, but this is now starting to become a recurring problem in windows! Pierre - this is one of the reasons for having to take care with WHICH version of a client library PHP is working with :( -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/lsces/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk// Firebird - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php
