Thanks for that George,
I managed to isolate the problem....
PEAR had slapped its own include_path at the bottom of my php.ini,
removing it cleared up the extension_dir problem.
BUT now if i use the include_path var the extension_dir fails and
phpinfo displays my php.ini from include_path down.
my php.ini include_path looks like this
include_path = "c:\php\pear"
If i comment out include_path, extension_dir works but now php wants to
find the include path as "c:\php5\pear"
I made c:\php5\pear and copied my pear dir into it and pear works but
this really is not tidy is it.
What could be wrong ????

Dave,
I would suggest putting your extension path in your system path.
I have encountered problems getting extensions to load where there have been
multiple instances of dll files. reducing these to one instance solved that
problem.
I once found that my php.ini settings weren't being loaded - but that was on
Debian and it was the method used to stop-start apache that was the cause of
that problem.
I'm running PHP5/Apache2 on WinNT and am restarting Apache on an almost
daily basis using the Services panel. I'm not encountering any extension
problems though. In fact I just upgraded from PHP5.0.4 to 5.1.4 and it was
really easy (much to my surprise).
Good luck

Hi List,
Sorry to bore most of you with this one but i cannot get extensions to
load using latest php5, apache 2.0xxx
I have std php running and it tells me that my php.ini is being read
from c:\php\php.ini. This is correct.
But what ever i change "extension_dir" to it always says "c:\php5". By
the way i am using phpinfo() for this info.
I make c:\php5 and copy extentions in there, but they still dont load
and yes i have uncommented out the relevant extension in php.ini
I always stop -> start apache for changes to take affect but nothing
changes.
I have php in the system path.
I also have tried copying the extension to windoze and system32 but
still they will not load.
ANy ideas ??????
Dave
