That helped... Seems I need to load the multi-byte string module before
I load the exif module... so now exif loads fine. However mysqli still
doesn't load which is less of a concern since I'm not using that module
at this time anyway. It does puzzle me thought because the standard
mysql module does load and work fine. I didn't notice any dependencies
unique to mysqli that didn't apply to mysql on the site I saw the
requirement to load the multi-byte module before exif.
I did confirm using the phpinfo page that the php.ini file being used is
the one I thought and all paths and files are in the right place. I am
running on Apache/2.0.55

Hi Chris,

It loads the standard mysql dll fine and all the dlls are in the
same place the path and php ini file all seem to be fine. I recently
added the exif module and now it doesn't load either. Anyone have
any idea why these 2 modules won't load when the others do?
Have you changed anything else recently? Perhaps installing a new
version of PHP, moving some files around, updating Windows, etc?
What do you use to set the location of the PHP files? (i.e. have you
modified your System Path, or did you just throw them all into the
Windows\System folder?)
Is this with Apache or IIS btw?
My checklist would be something like this:
1) Check that the PHP.INI file you *think* PHP is using, it really is.
2) Check that you don't have redundant DLL files lurking around (in
the Windows folder for example)
3) Ensure you're using a recent enough version of the MySQL DLL for it
to work
4) Check your paths!
5) Check your dependances.. some DLLs require others.

Sorry that my blog is running so slow, for some reason sy3 has crawled
to a halt, while other sites on my server work perfectly. Most
annoying!
Cheers,
