configure php extensions

Hi,

I've been using Easyphp 5.3.1 for quite a while now and found it indeed very easy to use. I run an out-of-the-box installation, the only thing I've changed so far is adding another Alias line for phpmyadmin in the httpd.conf file, so phpmyadmin is found by the CTRL-Y menu entry.

Now I need to enable a php extension and found that in the php extensions window (CTRL-X) there is only one red line of crippled characters and a message "Extensions in red can't be used...".

There are 2 php.ini files. The one in the apache subdir has an entry

extension_dir = "E:\Daten\EaysPHP\php\ext\"

which is where the dlls reside, and the php.ini in the conf_files subdir reads

extension_dir = "${path}\php\ext\" which should point to the same directory.

How can I resolv this to get a proper extension list with CTRL-X?

That was bug supposed to be corrected in 5.3.1..

Extension windows handle conf_file\php.ini, and when this file is modified, apache\php.ini is regenerated and apache restarted.

So just enable extension editing conf_file\php.ini

Thierry,

thanks, I un-commented the desired module in php.ini and it works.
