did we include dl() files in PHP?

sand123

can we include dl(mysql.so) in PHP files?

I included but it gives the following error..
Warning: dl(): Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/local/apache2/php/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20020429/mysql.so' - /usr/local/apache2/php/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20020429/mysql.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in /home/safesquid/register/common.php on line 3
?

why?

Hi,

create a little phpinfo() script and post the configure options (near the top of the output).

ya file is existed in the given pasth below..

/usr/lib/php4/domxml.so

here is the phpinfo() script.

http://ww2.oe2000.com/perl/phpinfo.php

thank you,

sand123

ya,

domxml.so file is existed ..
/usr/lib/php4/domxml.so

here is the phpinfo() script output..
http://ww2.oe2000.com/perl/phpinfo.php

In your first post you wrote about mysql.so but in your last post you wrote about domxml.so. Which one do you want to dl ? The second problem is that in the first post the directory is not /usr/lib ...

Did you compile PHP yourself ? How does the PHP code look like ?

You can enable PHP modules if they have been compiled as shared (not internal) but that depends on how PHP has been compiled.

The phpinfo url you posted doesn't work (even with www..... instead of ww2....).

Thomas

sand123

both the files
dl(mysql.so)
dl(domxml.so)

This is my php script for phpinfo()..
<?
phpinfo();
?

output of this script is very long.
so I am not giving here.

I am executing the php files on my local apache server..
that is the path like..
/usr/local/apahe2/htdocs/

I didn't knoe about pHP modules...
How to enable it..

But i know the files like php.ini.. httd.conf...
becoz i never used dl() file in PHP script...

:mad:

I wasn't completely correct in my last post. It's called "PHP extensions as (shared) modules".

Did you compile apache/PHP yourself ? It might be neccessary to recompile PHP but that depends on how the existing apache2 and PHP have been installed.

I need the output of the phpinfo script to tell you more.

Save the page with your browser and post the file as attachment (rename it to .txt). There's a file input on the reply page.

I'd suggest to enable the two extensions with php.ini globally so you don't need to use dl. To do that set the extension_dir variable in php.ini to the directory where the extension files are (/usr/lib/php4) and then enable the two extensions by adding the two lines

extension=mysql.so
extension=domxml.so

There are sections/examples in the php.ini file that show you where to put these lines.

Thank you Thomas!

I am trying to do what u said...

here i am sending u the file...

Hi,

PHP already supports MySQL (but with client API 3.x). It doesn't support domxml so you might need to recompile PHP or to get a matching module from somewhere.

So don't enable the mysql extension. Do you have problems connecting to MySQL ?

EDIT: The php.ini file has to be in /usr/local/apache2. Did you compile apache2/PHP yourself ? Which OS do you have on the web server ?

Thomas

sand123

No,there is no problem for connecting MySQL.

Even if it shows the dl() error, the queries(related to database) executes successfully.

how to recompile PHP ?
how to get a matching module from somewhere?

php.ini is in the path
/etc/php.ini

I didn't compile apache2/PHP myself ?
How? to compile.

OS on the web server may be red hat Linux.(may be)(Apache web server)

tsinka

Ok,

you don't need to dl extensions already enabled so just remove all the dl lines loading the mysql extension.

Is that server a dedicated server or a shared server (some ISP server) ?

Thomas

sand123

it is not ISP server.

It is dedicated server.

tsinka

ls -l /etc/*release

Then execute

cat /etc/the_filename

cat /etc/redhat-release
or
cat/etc/SuSE-release

using the filename you get.

That should show you the distribution that is installed.

Thomas

[root@ns1 root]# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Linux release 9 (Shrike)

Ok,

it's a RedHat with some apache/mysql/php packages installed. But the apache2 and php-4.3.6 are custom compiled versions.

So you need to recompile php-4.3.6. To use the domxml extension you need to install the libxml RPM package (if it isn't already installed).

But it might be sufficient to just recompile PHP from source without installing it and just copying the so file to the extensions folder (the one displayed in the phpinfo output).

You need to get the matching PHP sources (4.3.6).

Who installed the server ?

Thomas

sand123

how to recompile php-4.3.6?

I don't know who installed the server.?( I am a programmer here.)

tsinka

Ok,

do you need xslt support ? I'll post the steps you need to compile that module after your answer. Is there anyone in your company who knows how to compile stuff from sources ?
