im new to this, i installed php mysql and apache and i get this error message on start up:

PHP Startup: UNable to loaddynamic library 'c:/php/ext\php_pdf.dll'- The specified procedure could not be found.

i installed php 5.0.0, the php_pdf.dll was missing so i downloaded php5.0.5 and installed just the php_pdf.dll from that package but i still get message above.

anyone help me ?

i noticed a backslash in the file name ('c:/php/ext \ php_pdf.dll'), should this be a forward slash?? and if so what file do i change to look for the right extension?

cheers in advance

In your php.ini, you can see a list of *.dll files associated with your php installation. If you are just starting, then probably, you do not need the php_pdf.dll. Try commenting out that file in your php.ini. The line should look like this...

;extension=php_pdf.dll // NOTE: notice the semi colon at the start of this line?

Save the file (php.ini)

Restart your Apache (php is linked to apache) in the control panel ->admin tools ->services
