PHP 4 - Win 2000 - DLLs

Anon

Hi, I have installed PHP 4 in Win 2000 and configured it with IIS 5.0 as ISAPI (with php4isapi.dll), but when I try to access a .php file, an error box appeared, stated that php could not find DLL module stated in php.ini.
I then wondered about this, since I have put path to php4 extensions directory included within PHP 4 installation pack. I also have uncommented DLLs, such as php_oci8.dll, php_mssql.dll, etc etc. When I re-comment these DLLs, everything goes smoothly (of course).
I also have tried using module dynamic loading (dl) but still didn't work. Please, help me, I guessed this is about settings in php.ini and files placement, but i don't know how, since this problem doesn't occur in Win 98 - PWS.

Thanks

well under nt4 i have no problem i move the php_mssql70.dll to the windows/system32 dir and uncomment it in te php.ini and it works fine but i found under 95 using the php_mssql70.dll php fails to work, so im looking into it as I type, this could be the same problem as you are having.

Definitely copy your DLLs into the c:\winnt\system32 directory and see if that makes a difference. Question: are you able to get it to run with the ISAPI extension? If so, I'd be interested in any performance improvements over CGI. Never been able to get it to run consistently...

Thanks Dave

Bibie,

Have you specified the location of the loadable extensions using the extension_dir directive in your php.ini? Are you able to load other modules, or is it just the oracle8i and mssql modules that fail?
