Hi,

it has been reported to me, that the db2 driver for dba_ does not work in RC4.

I've tried also RC5 with the same results. But ndbm and gdbm drivers work OK.



The configure line is 

--with-apxs=/usr/bin/apxs --with-db2 --with-ndbm

Works for me just fine. Could you specify what
doesn't work? And a sample script would be nice 
to have too..

Hi,

it's still happening. I've tried and packaged RC6 and it doesn't seem

to work with glibc 2.2 and LFS perhaps.



<?

        $dbh = dba_open("/tmp/test.db2","c","db2");

   if(!$dbh) {

      echo "dba_open failed\n";

   exit;

   }



   dba_replace ("key", "This is an example!", $dbh);



   if (dba_exists ("key", $dbh)) {

      echo dba_fetch ("key", $dbh);

      dba_delete ("key", $dbh);

   }



   dba_close ($dbh);

?>

Does it get compiled in? ie. What does phpinfo() say about it?
Does the script print out any error messages?

phpinfo() says it knows db2 and ndbm backends. The ndbm

works OK, but db2 doesn't.

   Warning: driver initialization failed in /home/cech/WWW/php4/test-db2.php on line 2

   dba_open failed



It creates an empty .db file and that's all. Normal C programs

work with db2 as expected.

I compiled ndbm support into my test bed and this still works just fine for
me.  What is the version of db2 you're using?

Are there any errors in log files?

Hi,

I didn't want to imply, that ndbm has some impact on db2. Only note,

that other DBA drivers work.

No. there is nothing in the error logs. 4.0.3pl1 worked OK. Maybe it's just libraries. I'll try to investigate more, but probably

after holidays.

Hi,

I've found out the problem. Apache and php4 were using different

DB2 libraries - one from glibc and the other Sleepycat one.  After recompiling apache

it's all OK.

Sorry
