php command line

I just installed EasyPHP 12.1 and I'm trying to use php via the command line. At first, I was getting "'php' is not recogniced as an internal or external command." This is probably because it's not in the system PATH.

So I added C:\Program Files\EasyPHP-12.1\php\php546x120906230310 (because php.exe resides there). This didn't seem to work because it was then complaining that it was "Unable to load dynamic library ..." multiple times for each of the .dll's in the php folder. Here's an example of one:

Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'C:\cygwin\usr\local\bin;C:\cygwin\bin;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\Subversion\bin;C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin;C:\Program Files\EasyPHP-12.1\php\php546x120906230310\php\php546x120906230310\ext\php_gd2.dll' - The specified module could not be found.
in Unknown on line 0

Why is it showing my whole PATH here? Did I add the wrong path to the PATH? Does this have to do with the ${path} variable for easyphp?

Any ideas?

So I got it working, but I had to install a separate version of PHP. I now have a standalone version in C:\PHP and another inside EasyPHP. Not ideal, but it works.

Let me know if you guys find another solution.

change these 2 lines in your PHP.INI file (which is probably in this folder:
c:\Program Files (x86)\EasyPHP-12.1\\php\php546x120922121219 )

extension_dir = "c:\Program Files (x86)\EasyPHP-12.1\php\php546x120922121219\ext\"
zend_extension = "c:\Program Files (x86)\EasyPHP-12.1\\php\php546x120922121219\php_xdebug-2.2.1-5.4-vc9.dll"

After doing this i only receive 1 error about 'yaz...',
PHP worked from command-line, when i commented (added a semicolon) this line:
;extension=php_yaz.dll

But EasyPHP stopped working..... ;(

Maybe YAZ (http://www.php.net/manual/en/book.yaz.php) should be installed to solve this 'problem'...

Hello, all missing dll's to fix the problem can be found here [ftp.zlatkovic.com]

iconv, libxslt, libxml, zlib1...just download the missing dll's by the error messages which easyphp gives you and put them into the php/php546x120922121219 folder, tadaaa!!

yeah these errors are very annoying..
