Hello

I have the following minimalist PHP 5.4.8 setup for Windows:

php-cgi.exe
php.ini
php5.dll
php_gd2.dll
dummy.php

Here's the two lines I edited in php.ini:

//extension_dir = ".\"
extension_dir = "./"
....
extension=php_gd2.dll

Still, when running "php-cgi.exe dummy.php" in a DOS box, PHP can't
locate the php_gd2.dll extension:
=====================
C:\Projects\Php\dummy>php-cgi.exe dummy.php
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library
'./php_gd2.dll' - The specified module could not be found.
in Unknown on line 0
=====================

Do I need to edit php.ini further, or am I missing some binaries?

Thank you.

Are you sure you're changing the right php.ini file? What does
phpinfo() show you (both for the configuration file being used and the
loaded extensions)?

The problem disappeared after using the thread-safe version of release
5.4.9 ("VC9 x86 Thread Safe (2012-Nov-21 21:22:38)")
http://windows.php.net/download/#php-5.4

Thank you.
