[thelist] Linux, Apache, php Help Please

[Jay Blanchard]

Thanks Jay.  Actually had to add it.  Having other problems with 
sessions accessing the "tmp" directory for session data and my mysql and

mssql extensions are not available.  The .so files didn't get installed.

 I think I may need to re-compile php.

Any other thoughts appreciated.

Here are some other thoughts  :)

Check your php.ini file to make sure that extensions are enabled. There
should be a section in the .ini called Dynamic Extensions ....

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; Dynamic Extensions ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

with stuff like

; If you wish to have an extension loaded automaticly, use the following
; syntax:
;
;   extension=modulename.extension
;
; For example, on Windows:
;
;   extension=msql.dll
;
; ... or under UNIX:
;
;   extension=msql.so
;
; Note that it should be the name of the module only; no directory
information
; needs to go here.  Specify the location of the extension with the
; extension_dir directive above.


;Windows Extensions
;Note that MySQL and ODBC support is now built in, so no dll is needed
for it.
;
;extension=php_bz2.dll
;extension=php_ctype.dll
;extension=php_cpdf.dll
;extension=php_curl.dll
;extension=php_cybercash.dll

etc. etc. etc.

Of course, as always, remeber to restart Apache anytime you make a
change to httpd.conf or php.ini. If your version of PHP has ODBC built
in you should be good to go with MSSQL, requiring no further dinking
around with .ini's and .conf's
