Description:
------------
PHP installed as a module to Apache 2.2.16. Apache running as a service. When service is starting, i see this warning message: "PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'C:/php/ext/php_curl.dll' - The specified module could not be found." File php_curl.dll exists. Another extenstions load successfully. I don't see this warning in console and this script returning 1: <?PHP echo function_exists("curl_init")?1:0; ?>

Something is wrong in your setup then. It works just fine here, try from a cmd line:

C:\test\534rc1vc6x86ts>php -d extension_dir=ext -d extension=php_curl.dll -m

where C:\test\534rc1vc6x86ts contains the contents of the 5.3.4RC1 archive.

PHP, runned in command line works fine. 
this command returned that curl is already loaded:
php -d extension_dir=ext -d extension=php_curl.dll -m
php.ini row extension_dir have full path in value: C:/php/ext
But curl cannot be loaded with apache2.
all another modules (such as gd2, mysql, mbstring etc.) are loading succesfully.
Downgrade to 5.3.1 helps me.

Try:

 php -n -d extension_dir=ext -d extension=php_curl.dll -m

so no php.ini will be used.

what you said later confirms that this is a configuration issue. Double check phpinfo's extension_dir, which php.ini is loaded and that php directory is in your path, curl needs openssl DLLs.

Please contact php-setup or php-windows mailing lists for further support.
