It's pretty useless without libmysql.dll.

Yeah, I just found this out.
Strange the win32 installer didn't add this.
The error message could be clearer :)

Although I don't develop under windows and I should say that this OS
has been "developing" my allergies I would suggest to use WAMP. Which is
Windows-Apache-MySQL-PHP enviroment that you might find very useful and
it might make things easier for you.

Thodoris,
I don't like developing on windows either, but I find it to be worse when
using WAMP. When I first started developing PHP I used to use WAMP and also
tried EasyPHP. Although things were easier at first, IMO they add too much
stuff in conf files that make things confuse when you need to make some
specific changes.
Thanks for your suggestion :)

You should try Xampp then. http://apachefriends.org
They've segregated the apache config files to make things easier.

So, that error message about a missing DLL, when it's really a "sub" DLL that
is missing...
Is that something in PHP source that could be fixed to specify WHICH dll is
really missing?
Or is that just Windows being stupid?
Mr. Spock has calculated that a quick hack change to that error message to be
more specific would save approximately 3,141.59 man-hours per week...
:-)
I'm happy to put it in bugs.php.net as a feature request, if it's actually IN
php, but don't want to waste the resources to mark it as junk if there's no way
PHP could do that.

I haven't seen such stuff in Linux, so maybe it's just Windows throwing
weird messages. But hopefully someone with more experience will answer to
this :)
If it's not possible to tell exacly what's wrong, maybe just adding a "or
one of it's depencies" would help.

It's been a while since I've done Windows development, but IIRC PHP
will only be able to tell that the DLL could not be loaded, I don't
believe Windows exposes exactly what the problem was. It could
probably be done by examining the external symbols on the DLL and
manually checking for the presence of those DLLs in the path, but that
seems like overkill.
While the accuracy of this error message is not great there's enough
info out there for it to be a short-lived issue for most people making
the effort required to improve it better spent on other problems.

In this case at least. Because I can recall other times that you got the
urge to hit your head on the keyboard multiple times (or perhaps the
keyboard on the screen) in order to get over the fact that the problem
that caused the error was so ...king obvious. On the other hand windowz
in the same situation were logging what happened to the last episode in
the Clone Wars (animated series).
So I will stick to my LAMP server for the moment until I start feeling
that that my masochism side is coming on top. In that case I might
deleop something using Microsoft's magnificent OS.

Hi all!
I don't know which is the right place to make an bugreport.
I installed on my linux desktop the pdt-2.0 all-in-one but i have a
nice, big exception. :(
So, my question is, where can I send an bugreport?

I've never heard of "pdt" whatever it is. It's definitly not a part of
the PHP project, so to answer your question: not here.
So, where you ask? tried to google it yet ? That's where...

PDT is a plugin for the Eclipse Platform. The Zend people made a
special PDT 2.0 All-in-one build, that's why I said the zend list.

...had to make one of these in my Advanced Programming & Algorithms class.
Self-balancing trees are a pretty interesting beast to learn about/work with,
but a beast nonetheless. :)

i'm still trying to get my head around how the operations are done.
sometimes i see that java app re-arrange large parts of the tree, and i
wonder if it's still the same tree i'm looking at :)

Hi guys. I'm running PHP 5.2.6 (cli) on Mac OS X 10.5.5 and i've
tried to install and configure the http pecl extension like the
tutorial in your web site, i've used pecl to install it, i've also
tried to compile it manually. Everything got installed correctly,
there is the http.so file in the extensions dir ("/usr/lib/php/
extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613/"), the path is loaded by php/
apache and i've added the line "extension=http.so" in "php.ini" file.
However the extension isn't loaded by php. I've wrote a simple script
that uses "extension_loaded('http')" function and i get a false
response. I need to use desperatly functions like http_request(...)
for a college project so i would appreciate a quick response from you.
If you could just provide me with a more specific Leopard tutorial
tha would be great.
Giving an antecipated "thank you" for any kind of answer.
Regards, and keep up the good work!

try the full path like so:

Hi Guys,
Quick question: can a static method in PHP be recursive, or is there
some sort of weird law against this? Ihave my method setPrereq that can
essentially call itself (well, it includes a file which may call the
setPrereq method, so essentially it is recursive).
I've done some tests, and it seems my setPrereq method is only getting
called once. I'm not getting any errors under E_STRICT
