Subject R: [firebird-php] Basic Newby question
Author u.masotti@libero.it
Hi Peter,

----Messaggio originale----
Da: peter@... Is there a basic idiots guide that I can
use to configure php/codeigniter with Firebird?regards

Besides suggestions from Lester, who writes faster than me, I'd also check
these:

First: copy this simple script in your web server root directory as phpinfo.
php:

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

and launch from browser http://localhost/phpinfo.php
If you find a section called "Interbase" then you have correctly installed and
configured php_interbase.dll else you must check php.ini and remove a comment
character (';') before the line:
extension=php_interbase.dll

Second: check for correct firebird client.
php_interbase.dll search for GDS32.DLL installed in system if not compiled
with proper switches, so you must check if in your system directory there is
GDS32.DLL from firebird (and not the one from Interbase!)

Third: if you're using RadPHP or Delphi for PHP, check in the directories
where it is installed to remove/rename all occurrences of GDS32.DLL (that are
the Interbases's ones).

HTH.
Ciao.
Mimmo.
