error in extension_dir

jansky

i just upgrade from 4 to 5.4 and i have to edit the php.ini where all the .dll files resides

previously when i used the older version my extension_dir is pointing to extension_dir='./extensiondir/"

which means all the extension library resides in my
c:\php\extensiondir

when i upgrade to version 5 and edit the php.ini the problem occured

Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'c:/extensiondir/php_curl.dll' - The specified module could not be found. in Unknown on line 0 PHP

can any one point me to the right one

Presuming that PHP itself is in c:\php.

And notice how it's not looking in ./extensiondir anymore, but /extensiondir. Could that be your problem? If you know that the extensions are in c:\extensiondir\ then why not set extension_dir = "c:\php\extensiondir\"?

I already pointed to c:\php\extensiondir\ but same problems occured and i experimented it by having another folder with same file c:\extensiondir

so in my
extension_dir="c:\php\extensiondir\" and this doesnt work and tried
extension_dir=c"\extensiondir"; both not working

any idea??

Installer

On mine it's extension_dir = "c:/php/ext"

I don't remember if I changed the default when I installed it, but I don't know why I would have, either.

jansky

well i have to go back to lower version of php for the meantime

Installer

Can't you just do a file search to find the right directory?

Or look at phpinfo() to see where PHP is looking for extensions (and where it's looking for php.ini)?
