I am trying to install the YAML 1.2 extension to PHP 5.6 under IIS 10 (Windows 10). I am using http://pecl.php.net/package/yaml/1.2.0/windows to download the files.
I have downloaded the PHP 5.6 non-thread-safe DLL (x86 to match my version of PHP), copied php_yaml.dll to my extension directory, copied yaml.dll to C:\Windows\System32 (which is reported as one of the paths in phpinfo()) and added extension=php_yaml.dll to my php.ini. I've verified with phpinfo() that the correct php.ini file is being loaded, and commenting out other extensions removes them from the output of phpinfo().
However, YAML doesn't appear in the output of phpinfo() and the functions are not loaded. Running php-cgi.exe -v from the command line gives a warning:
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'C:\PHP\php_5_06_14\ext\php_yaml.dll' - The specified module could not be found.
in Unknown on line 0
The file exists at the location specified and the permissions appear to be correct. What else can I do to get it working?
As far as I can tell, the use of PECL as package manager is being in dropping.
Having to install extensions in a server makes things more complicated and it depends on the environment, permissions, etc.
I'm sure someone could help you solve that (I haven't work on windows in years, so I can't)
But, instead I suggest you another solution. Maybe you can opt for it, maybe you have to stick with the extension, but, in case you can actually look for other option, I suggest you to use another library.
https://github.com/symfony/yaml
And, you could use Composer to install your libraries, I suggest you take a look at it.
Again, it may be for you or not, but I think this would be a lot easier.
I hope that helps.
I put the path to my extension directory in the path environment variable. That fixed the issue for me.

Before marking this as a duplicate, hear me out :)
I have some years experience working with PHP on windows, and have even created a portable (for Windows) distribution of an AMP stack: https://thejaka.com/tzwamp/ which I named "WAMP Zero" or TZWAMP. I've used this WAMP distro extensively, and people I know are using it as well. The last (previous) distribution works fine, but when I tried to update the distro to the latest builds of the applications/components from the vendor/distributor sites, I hit a snag. The PHP extensions aren't loading anymore on the new distro. It seems one or more dependencies are not locatable but I don't know what or where from. I tried viewing php_mbstring.dll in a dependency viewer, but couldn't figure out what was the matter. There were a few missing dependencies, but most seemed to be from CRT and I've installed the latest. I'm guessing the missing dependencies can be resolved from PATH environment variable. The following are not loading:
php_mbstring.dll php_mysqli.dll php_openssl.dll php_pdo_mysql.dll
php_mbstring.dll php_mysqli.dll php_openssl.dll php_pdo_mysql.dll
The error messages are like: PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Failed to load ......\php\ext\php_mbstring.dll, The system cannot find the file specified.
Before you start complaining about the relative path, note that on 7.3 it worked fine.
The path to the ext dir is specified relatively, but the path seems to be correct. The same path worked fine in the previous distro of TZWAMP, and when I change the path, the error messages also change leading me to believe the path is correct. Note also that I tried adding php path to PATH environment variable as well.
The successfully working PHP version is 7.3.10.
The problematic PHP version is 7.4.2.
Apache version is 2.4.41
Is anyone aware of any relevant change from 7.3.* to 7.4.*, or else can anyone help me debug the issue and resolve it?
EDIT: I've checked and an absolute path seems to work. However, in order to make this portable, a relative path is required. Relative paths worked with 7.3 and I believe prior major versions. Any ideas?
I've solved this for now to my requirements by using an Environment Variable substitution.
extension_dir = "${P}\php\ext"
However, a relative path solution would also be welcome.
I am just getting start with Zend Framework and seem to run into this problem
Testing Note: PHPUnit was not found in your include_path, therefore no
testing actions will be created.
I am on mac 10.8.5, Using Zend Server 6 (free), and Zend Framework 1.12.3
Have pear and phpunit installed
which pear
/usr/local/zend/bin/pear
which phpunit
/usr/local/zend/bin/phpunit
from php info and include_path
Loaded Configuration File /usr/local/zend/etc/php.ini
include_path=".:/usr/local/zend/share/ZendFramework/library:/usr/local/zend/bin/pear:/usr/local/zend/bin/phpunit:/usr/local/zend/share/pear:/usr/local/zend/share/pear/phpunit"
No matter what i put in the include_path, i always get the above notice, PHPUnit was not found in your include path.
I been searching and someone said zf.ini can cause this, and that file should be editted, however i can't seem to find such a file anywhere on my Mac. I do have previous Mamp and Xampp installations, but phpinfo() states the correct php.ini file loaded so i doubt that is the problem
Edit:
Okay so i finally managed to fix it. Using "zf.sh --setup" i found the paths to all the config files, including .zf.ini and how to edit it. The file did not exist, so i had to create it, and adding "include_path" to .zf.ini fixed the issue. However in the end i am overriding the php.ini which was probably being over ridden. I still like to know why adding pear path to php.ini didn't work, hopefully someone can explain that
I'm trying to install a Magento on my server, and when I get to "Configuration", the installation launches:
PHP extension "curl" must be loaded.
I've checked my php.ini, and extension=php_curl.dll is not commented. For both Apache and PHP folders. I also checked my Wamp manager, and it looks like this:
.
So I guess that my php_curl is working fine... But I still get the same message when I install Magento:
.
Any idea on what's wrong?
I had the same problem. The mod_curl extension in wamp has a bug.
You can replace it with a newer version. I don't know which PHP-Version you use but here you can download a newer version. Download a TS (TheadSafe) version of the module and replace it with your existing curl module.
http://www.anindya.com/php-5-4-3-and-php-5-3-13-x64-64-bit-for-windows/
And a helpfull post:
http://forum.wampserver.com/read.php?2,85716
Replaced the old php_curl.dll with the new one in \wamp\bin\php\php5.4.3\ext\ by downloading from http://www.anindya.com/php-5-4-3-and-php-5-3-13-x64-64-bit-for-windows/ .
Now its working. It is the error with recent wamp installation package.
You have to modify the php.ini files in your xampp folder. Three files in three different places need to be changed.
Follow the following steps to enable curl library with XAMPP in Windows:
Step 1:
Browse and open the following 3 files
C:\Program Files\xampp\apache\bin\php.ini
C:\Program Files\xampp\php\php.ini
C:\Program Files\xampp\php\php4\php.ini
Step 2:
Uncomment the following line in your php.ini file by removing the semicolon (;).
;extension=php_curl.dll
After that it will look something like something below-
extension=php_curl.dll
Step 3:
Restart your Apache server.
Step 4:
Check your phpinfo() to see whether curl has properly enabled or not.
Enjoy using curl() library.
I know this question may have appeared few times here and in the internet. But still I feel it is not clear for somebody who wanted to enter into the world of frameworks. I have followed these links Rob Allens Tutorial, ZF Quick Tutorial.
But some how I feel it is not quite clear with the installation part. I have a windows system basically Vista with the newest version of XAMPP installed. I have downloaded the latest version of ZFSkeletonApplication from this link ZFSkeletonApp, extracted the skeleton contents, renamed the folder to zendframework and moved it to xampp folder i.e now ZF skeleton is in c:\xampp\zendframework.
So until here everything seems clear and easy, from here I am some how lost with the configurations. Can some one elaborate the things from here how to install the Zf and make it work, like changes in the include paths, .htaccess files and so on. Please do remember that I have windows with XAMPP on it. If some one can guide me exactly for this set up, it would be helpful.
P.S. It would be good if one can provide info about the changes which I need to make with examples consisting of paths, so that I am not lost, for example like you can find .htaccess file here(ex pathname), changes in .htaccess file should be so and so.
Thanks
For future references, i also made a big post on how to install ZF2 on a windows xampp environment right here Install ZF2 on Windows Xampp
OK, i have done this on multiple systems now. For a home system the following steps work quite well:
Download msysGit and install it to any directory
Run the git-cmd.bat from the msysGit-Folder
Move into the directory you want i.e. C:\xampp\htdocs\ (this is done via cd dirname or cd .. to go up a level, change partition with D: and hit enter)
Run the following command. The <OptionalFolderName> would be the name of a Sub-Directory of htdocs, if you skip this, the folder will get named ZendSkeletonApplication
git clone git://github.com/zendframework/ZendSkeletonApplication.git <OptionalFolderName>
Possible Trouble Scenario (fatal:unable to connect to github.com)
Once again at workplaces, pretty often the default port (9418) for the git-protocol is blocked. If this is the case for you, then you should try one of the following Commands
git clone https://github.com/zendframework/ZendSkeletonApplication.git <OptionalFolderName>
git clone git#github.com:zendframework/ZendSkeletonApplication.git <OptionalFolderName>
Now you are not done yet. The skeleton Application is installed, but the framework is still missing, here some people might run into the first problems, but this actually is quite easy.
We're still at the command line interface
cd <OptionalFolderName> or cd ZendSkeletonApplication depending on what you did earlier
php composer.phar self-update
php composer.phar install (this might take a while)
So, this is the part where lots of things can happen. I have two scenarios happened to me:
Scenario #1 No directory write permissions
This is easily handled by running the command line interface with administrator privileges
Scenario #2 Working behind a router (i.e. at work)
Personally i didn't have to do much to get this working, but the line might change depending on your proxy. Personally i did the following at the command line interface
SET HTTP_PROXY=http://proxy.domain.tld:8080 you might also be good with
SET HTTP_PROXY=proxy.domain.tld:8080 don't ask me why, but i needed the http://
With all those done, you should have an almost running ZendSkeletonApplication. The other part is how to set up your virtual host, but i won't go into detail on this, as that's even ZF1 Stuff and everyone should be familiar with that by now, if not, there's good resources to learn out there.
I hope i could be of help to you.
Setbacks have to install in Windows, but I ended up finding a solution. From ZF2 to install on windows via git, for this is the only use that simulates msysGit git linux on windows, for it is only access the tutorial: http://zf2.com.br/tutoriais/post/instalando-o-git-no-windows-para-fazer-a-instalacao-do-zf2-somente-no-comando-do-windows-via-composer
Since I had lot dependency extension problems (mostly .dll files) with old version of XAMPP, so first thing I did was made sure I uninstall all previous versions of PHP already present on my system as well as old XAMPP. Then installed latest XAMPP v3.2.2 (using latest XAMPP 3.2.2-32-bit on Win-7-64-bit). Then followed installation steps in XAMPP Documentation under title Start a New Zend Framework 2 Project.
I had issues while installing composer also with old-XAMPP, but somehow those errors didn't appear during composer installation this time. And, I successfully installed ZEND till I typed http://localhost:8081/myapp/ (I renamed my ZendSkeletonAppliction folder as myapp as per documentation) into my browser to access the same and met the error which said:
Fatal error: Uncaught RuntimeException: Unable to load ZF2. Run php composer.phar install or define a ZF2_PATH environment variable. in C:\xampp\apps\myapp\htdocs\init_autoloader.php:51
Stack trace:
#0 C:\xampp\apps\myapp\htdocs\public\index.php(18): require()
#1 {main} thrown in C:\xampp\apps\myapp\htdocs\init_autoloader.php on line 51
Composer.phar was not even present the first time I downloaded ZendSkeletonApplication‐master.zip from Github (there was only composer.json and composer.lock files present). Anyhow I didn't need them since I followed XAMPP Doc which doesn't call composer.phar in command line:
composer create‐project ‐s dev zendframework/skeleton‐application path/to/install
I am not that tech-savvy to know how to 'define a ZF2_PATH environment variable' correctly, so I wasted time looking for solution online, couldn't find any (which is when I stumbled on this forum which also turned out not to have a solution for my query). In the end, in a fit of depression and anxiety, serendipity happened. All I did was as per XAMPP's ZEND documentation I right-clicked inside C:\xampp\apps\myapp\htdocs folder and clicked 'Composer Install' which reinstalled the Zend files from cache. Then refreshed http://localhost:8081/myapp/ and the Zend intro page appeared.
I just did it like that:
D:\web_dev\zendapp>C:\PHP\php.exe composer.phar self-update
it worked perfectly
This is the third time I'm installing zend studio and zend server now these two are installed succesfully (after half a day). But when I'm trying to create a new project I always get this zf error...
`
*************** ZF ERROR ****************
In order to run the zf command, you need to ensure that Zend Framework
is inside your include_path. There are a variety of ways that you can
ensure that this zf command line tool knows where the Zend Framework
library is on your system, but not all of them can be described here.
The easiest way to get the zf command running is to give it the include
path via an environment variable ZEND_TOOL_INCLUDE_PATH or
ZEND_TOOL_INCLUDE_PATH_PREPEND with the proper include path to use,
then run the command "zf --setup". This command is designed to create
a storage location for your user, as well as create the zf.ini file
that the zf command will consult in order to run properly on your
system.
Example you would run:
$ ZEND_TOOL_INCLUDE_PATH=/path/to/library zf --setup
Your are encourged to read more in the link that follows.
Zend_Tool & CLI Setup Information
(available via the command line "zf --info")
* Home directory found in environment variable HOMEPATH with value \Users\admin
* Storage directory assumed in home directory at location \Users\admin/.zf/
* Storage directory does not exist at \Users\admin/.zf/
* Config file assumed in home directory at location \Users\admin/.zf.ini
* Config file does not exist at \Users\admin/.zf.ini
To change the setup of this tool, run: "zf --setup"
ok (took 0:04.038)

I've already set the ZF_INCLUDE_PATH via command line with a new zend-framework library.
I never had a clean install with anything related to zend.
Could someone help me with this?
Thanks
I presume from the paths you are working on a windows machine. Zend Studio uses the zend tool (zf.bat in windows) to create a project. To make it work you must have properly installed the zend tool, i.e. you must be able to open a console (WINDOWS+R, type cmd, type enter) and successfully run the zf command.
In your case probably is a path issue, that you can resolve following the instructions here: http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.tool.framework.clitool.html#zend.tool.framework.clitool.setup-windows
In particular:
The most common setup in the Windows Win32 environment, is to copy the zf.bat and zf.php into the same directory as your PHP binary. This can generally be found in one of the following places:
C:\PHP
C:\Program Files\ZendServer\bin\
C:\WAMP\PHP\bin
You should be able to run php.exe on the command line. If you are not able to, first check the documentation that came with your PHP distribution, or ensure that the path to php.exe is in your Windows PATH environment variable.
The next order of business is to ensure that Zend Framework library is set up correctly inside of the system PHP include_path. To find out where your include_path is located, you can type php -i and look for the include_path variable, or more succinctly execute php -i | grep include_path if you have Cygwin setup with grep available. Once you have found where your include_path is located (this will generally be something like C:\PHP\pear, C:\PHP\share, C:\Program%20Files\ZendServer\share or similar), ensure that the contents of the library/ directory are put inside your include_path specified directory.
If you are running on Ubuntu or Debian--or maybe Linux in general--it now seems you must create the environment variable ZEND_TOOL_INCLUDE_PATH. Having zend framework in your include_path (or copying zend framework to you existing include_path) no longer seems to work.
To manually install the latest version zend framework on Ubuntu/Debian, this is what I did after downloading ZF and extracting it to ~/temp
sudo cp -R ~/temp/ZendFramework-1.11.11/library/Zend /usr/share/php
sudo cp -R ~/temp/ZendFramework-1.11.11/extras/library/ZendX /usr/share/php
sudo cp ~/temp/ZendFramework-1.11.11/bin/zf.sh /usr/bin
sudo cp ~/temp/ZendFramework-1.11.11/bin/zf.php /usr/bin
Next edit /etc/environment, if you want other programs, like Netbeans, to be able to invoke zf.sh. Edit ~/.pam_environment, if you want only the current user to execute zf.sh. Add this line:
ZEND_TOOL_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/share/php
You may need to log out and log back in after doing this.
