Unable to load dynamic library

[Smooth]

Hi Guys,

Need help with php error!

I have installed ZCS Open Source Edition with success but received php error trying to install oscommerce catalog and phpmyadmin : PHP Warning: Unknown(): Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php/extensions/mysql.so' - libmysqlclient.so.15: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0.
PHP Warning: Unknown(): Invalid library (maybe not a PHP library) 'libmysqlclient.so' in Unknown on line 0

I have tried possible solutions like copying both files to my extention dir and uncommenting the directives in php.ini but no success so far. I have read somewhere that I might have to recompile php but I have no idea how this will affect my zimbra and it's already running services.

My phpinfo() is pointing to /opt/zimbra/php-5.0.5/lib/php.ini for my php.ini PATH while my php.ini was actually in /etc/php.ini. I have tried copying php.ini to /opt/zimbra/php-5.0.5/lib/ as indicated by phpinfo() but it doest work.

What do I need to do to sort this out guys? Please help!

Install your own PHP/Apache. The Zimbra one is not meant to be used outside of Zimbra.

Thanks for your reply.

Actually 'am a little confused about "install your own PHP/Apache" as I thought that zimbra-apache packaged it's own php to work with zcs (zcs is the only server installed on the machine). I installed suse linux with it's php package which means that I should by right have two php running. Is this what you mean?

I have three php.ini listed on the server:
/etc/php.ini
/opt/zimbra/conf/php.ini
/opt/zimbra/php-5.0.5/lib/php.ini ( I created this dir and then dumped a php.ini copy there - because my phpinfo() pointed there as the configuration file path for php.ini)

phpinfo() shows the following:

Configure Command
'./configure' '--prefix=/opt/zimbra/php-5.0.5' '--with-apxs2=/opt/zimbra/httpd-2.0.54/bin/apxs' '--with-config-file=/opt/zimbra/conf/php.ini' '--with-pspell=/opt/zimbra/aspell-0.60.3'

Configuration File (php.ini) Path
/opt/zimbra/php-5.0.5/lib/php.ini

And these are the errors thrown at me when I installed phpmyadmin and oscommerce:
Error showed by phpmyadmin:
Cannot load mysql extension. Please check your PHP configuration. - Documentation

Errror showed by oscommerce - catalog:
Warning: main(includes/configure.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /opt/zimbra/httpd-2.0.54/htdocs/catalog/includes/application_top.php on line 33 (looks like a permission related error but I reckon it has to do with mysql connection)

I was able to connect to mysql via the konsole and create databases.
Running php -1 also listed no error.

Do I still need to install another instance of php and if not what do need to do?

Thanks.

Sorry, but this is not clear to me. Do you mean I should install another php and apache to run alongside zimbra or install another instant of php for zimbra's tomcat-apache?

Thanks

Where are you trying to install these:

oscommerce catalog and phpmyadmin

If you're trying to install them on the Zimbra Apache then don't, you'll need to install another instance of apache/php for your own use and it will have to run on a port other than 80 as Zimbra will use that (unless you've changed it). Do not modify any of the files in /opt/zimbra.
