I've got a 64bit server with CentOS 6 and PHP 5.3 installed
php-5.3.2-6.el6_0.1.x86_64
I've installed xapian using RPMs from their website
rpm-eprints-org-xapian-6-1.noarch
xapian-bindings-php-1.2.7-1.x86_64
xapian-core-libs-1.2.7-1.x86_64
xapian-bindings-1.2.7-1.x86_64
xapian-core-1.2.7-1.x86_64
Now when I try to use the xapian library from PHP through Apache, I get this error:
Call to undefined function
dl()in/usr/share/php/xapian.phpon line 22
After some Googleing I found that dl() is no longer working in PHP 5.3+. I've enabled enable_dl in php.ini, didn't do anything. I've not been able to find any solution to this problem anywhere. I guess there aren't many people using CentOS 6 at the moment?
What can I do?
Since the xapian-bindings are a PHP-extension you could just load it by adding the following to your php.ini:
extension = xapian.so
Btw. the dl-manual says that dl is just disabled for certain "SAPIs" (and apparently mod_php is one of them).
One alternative would be to try php-cgi.
