Re: dl() problems with 4.2.0

Hi Q&A list, Thanks to Russ I've found out the this was causes due the settting extension_dir = ./ in his php.ini Looks at the stable source archives from 4.0.6 to current, it is written this way (enabled, not commented out or so) in php.ini-recommended and php.ini-distributed. Before I start digging my head any further into this, any idea *why* this directive is there and written this way ? It doesn't look right to me at a first glance. If you leave out extension_dir, it defaults to the compiele/build time directory which is <prefix>/lib/extension/... which is where further extension get installed if you use phpize on them. Any hints? - Markus On Mon, May 06, 2002 at 12:14:53PM +0200, Markus Fischer wrote : > Hi, > > I've read your note at http://php.net/dl .
