ID: 26581 Updated by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reported By: sire at acc dot umu dot se Status: Bogus Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: All Windows PHP Version: 4.3.4 New Comment:
Setting it to ./extensions might not work for all installation methods. The current directory is not guaranteed to be the PHP.exe folder on all servers and all methods (ISAPI, CGI, FastCGI, NSAPI, etc.). Best practice is to provide a full path in there, which is dependant on your local machine, so it cannot be provided as a default... Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-12-10 10:46:37] [EMAIL PROTECTED] It's described in install.txt. If someone installs without reading install.txt, he probably knows what is he doing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-12-10 10:37:11] sire at acc dot umu dot se Reopened. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-12-10 10:34:32] sire at acc dot umu dot se So you don't agree that it would be HELPFUL if the windows installation actually worked without the need to edit the php.ini file? EVERY Windows user is going to have to make this php.ini modification if they want to use more extensions. If this will have consequences I don't know of, atleast add a comment in the php.ini-dist file! Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-12-10 09:18:41] [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can unzip extensions wherever you want. It's in extensions/ directory just in distribution archive. It's stated also in install.txt. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-12-10 09:10:29] sire at acc dot umu dot se Description: ------------ The variable extension_dir is set to "./", it must be "./extensions" for Windows users. Please state this in the php.ini file, and in the manual... and make it default when installing the Windows exe?? When set to ./ and you enable gd2 (probably anything), and try to load a php page, it justs loads forever. Thanks for fixing this!
