PEAR DB Package help

tikal

PHP 4.3.6, Apache 1.3.19, Win ME

Can someone confirm that I should be able to use the PEAR package DB without running the PEAR package installer ie it is bundled with php.

I've set the php.ini to:
include_path = ".;c:\php\includes;c:\php;c:\php\PEAR"
extension_dir = "./;c:\php\PEAR;c:\php\extensions"

I checked the php/extensions directory and it contains php_db.dll

The path set in autoexec.bat includes c:\php;c:\php\PEAR;c:\php\extensions

When I remove the semi-colon to uncomment extension=php_db.dll and then restart Apache I get the following error:

Unknown(): Unable to load dynamic library './;c:\php\PEAR;c:\php\extensions\php_db.dll' - One of the library files needed to run this application cannot be found.

The manual definition for "extension_dir" says "in what directory." That would appear to be singular. Not a path.

Thanks yelvington.

I don't get the error on Apache start now.

However, when I try the DB::connect example in the PEAR manual I get the following error:

Fatal error: Undefined class name 'db' in ...

My code:

require_once 'DB.php';

$user = 'root';
$pass = 'myPSWD';
$host = 'localhost';
$db_name = 'myDB';

$dsn = "mysql://$user:$pass@$host/$db_name";

//fails here
$db = DB::connect($dsn);

Many thanks.
