I've been round and round this one but cannot seem to find out where it's going wrong.
I'm installing phpMyFAQ onto an existing Fedora (FC7) box that is already running a number of applications for us.
phymyfaq 2.5.5
2.6.23.17-88.fc7
php 5.2.11 --- (but I'll come to that)
mysql 5.1.33
apache 2.2.20
Install seemed simple enough on a test box I set up but when I came to install on a live customer facing box I get the following
when trying to run installer .php
' Some missing extensions were detected! Please enable the corresponding PHP extension(s):'
* ext/xmlwriter
So that seemed simple enough although here is the issue.
From the command line
php --ri xmlwriter
xmlwriter
XMLWriter => enabled
Which tells me xmlwriter is installed and enabled (as does php --re xmlwriter) and it did when I went through the pre-requiste checks
I've been round and around this . phpinfo tells me xmlwriter was compiled in with my distro version of php (5.2.6)
I even downloaded php source and rebuilt it myself which is how I arrive at 5.2.11 and I get exactly the same effect.
I commented out the requirement for xmlwriter in installer.php and it ran straight through without any issue but of course I need
the xmlwriter in order to make full use of phpmyfaq
On the version of phpmyfaq I built without xmlwriter the admin/index.php still reports php at version 5.2.6 ?
There are no other versions of php on this box, I've rebooted/restarted apache etc etc several times.
I even added teh extension to the php.ini file which had no effect
Suggestions please on how I can get round this - either my php install is compleley screwed or there is some cached info somewhere that I cannot get rid of to rebase thi install ?
Installer.php fails at xmlwriter

Hi,
I think you have different PHP versions for Apache and your command line.

Re: Installer.php fails at xmlwriter
Thanks for the pointer, I was going down the same lines but looking for a shortcut without destabizing
the other apps running on this server.
I resorted to downloading the apache sources and rebuilding it.
Hey presto - everything is fine.
Either I managed to get it all very confused or the apache distro I was using was built static, and not including xmlwriter.
Even when php itself could find this the static linked apache could not.
