otvilf Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 hi everyone, I have been searching EVERYWHERE for a solution to this problem but so far my search has proven unsuccessful! On my local machine i have a WAMP stack and it was working fine until after I installed a new php extension (it was PDO). Now Apache can't start up and the error log says "unclean shutdown of previous Apache run?" i managed to narrow it down to these (see below) as being the trouble makers. [php_PDO_OCI] extension=php_pdo_oci.dll [php_PDO_OCI8] extension=php_pdo_oci8.dll [php_PDO_PGSQL] extension=php_pdo_pgsql.dll [php_PDO_SQLITE_EXTERNAL] extension=php_pdo_sqlite_external.dll When these are commented out apache runs and local host is accessible. Being new to this whole thing I don't really know what these things do so my question is what will happen if I just leave these commented out? Will they affect anything in any way?

PFMaBiSmAd Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Problems like this are usually caused when you use .dll files that weren't built for the exact version and flavor of php. Did you use .dll files that came with your php distribution or how did you obtain the .dll files? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otvilf Posted March 21, 2011 Author Share Posted March 21, 2011 The extensions were installed when PHP was installed so the dll files just came with whatever is in the setup for php.. I had installed php previously when the wamp was working and then uninstalled it to reinstall it with the added extension Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
