Adding Extensions for Windows
Zend Server Reference Manual
The following procedure describes how to download compiled extensions for Wndows DLL files.
Windows Note:
When downloading extensions for Windows from PECL, make sure to download the non thread-safe
(NTS) version ONLY.
To download extensions:
1. Go to: http://www.php.net/downloads.php.
2. In the Windows binaries section, select: "PECL
Non-thread-safe Win32 binaries" (64-bit users can use this too).
3. Click the package to start a download process. Follow the download instructions and
extract the ZIP file.
4. Select the .dll you want.
5. To add the extension, go to the extension directory,
\ZendServer\lib\phpext, and add the .dll file there.
6. Go to your php.ini file and add the following line: extension=.dll.
7. To verify that the extension was loaded properly, go to Setup | Extensions and locate
the extension from the list.
When loading new extensions, also examine the log files.
For more information on these extensions, go to http://pecl4win.php.net/ .
Note: The extensions in this site are thread-safe and therefore should not be downloaded for use
with Zend Server .
Note:
Some extensions need directives to change the Extension's default configurations. These directives
should be added added to your php.ini file manually. There is no way to predict which directives
extensions may have: For each third party extension you want to add, make sure to go to the project's
source site to check for additional information related to the extension.
