This problem is on Apache 2.2.21.
PHP via module.
 [2012-07-21 00:22 UTC] hankmanw7 at home dot nl 
As of PHP 5.4.5 and above the COM extension isn't compiled into PHP anymore.
It'll still be delivered with the standard PHP release but must be enclosed
with the "extension = php_com_dotnet.dll" directive in php.ini.
 [2012-07-21 07:35 UTC] bugzilla33 at gmail dot com 
There is no:
;extension=php_com_dotnet.dll
in original php.ini,

why?
 [2012-07-21 08:04 UTC] bugzilla33 at gmail dot com 
Please modify php.ini's in package, add:
;extension=php_com_dotnet.dll

and

update

Today I stumbled over this bug, too.

The first thing I did was it to look into the Installation/Requirements section of the COM help and found nothing.
Then I got very angry and used Google; then I found this bug report.

The next thing I thought was "Yes, it's still PHP."

Since my update from 5.3 to 5.4 I've got many trouble, such as the different default parameter for htmlspecialchars, which destroys my ISO encoded data from the database (and you preferred solution to add the parameters to each call is insane).

So, please fix (at least) this bug, as the described in the post previously to this one.

Kind Regards

Information from within this bug report and within the user comments at 
php.net/com conclude that the fix for PHP bug #62146 changed this behavior, and 
that: 

This extension is no longer compiled by default as of 5.3.15 and 5.4.4. I'm not 
sure if that is intentional, and instead if it was a problem caused while 
allowing it to be shared, but regardless it happened. We'll see.

But today the documentation is wrong.

Class 'COM' not found.
PHP 5.4.3.

However, I've installed as follow:
I've installed the php_com_dotnet.dll DLL in php extensions directory.

I've added lines in my php.ini file :
[COM_DOT_NET] 
extension=php_com_dotnet.dll

I've restarted services.

Thanks for any idea.

This ticket has already been closed...

The error in your configuration is the "[COM_DOT_NET]".
The "extension=php_com_dotnet.dll" entry should belong to the "[PHP]" section.
If you write them under different sections (such as "[COM_DOT_NET]") PHP won't load these extensions.

Kind Regards
