Hey,

i tried to install 2 Extensions for Image editing. The first is called php_exif.dll. I copied the dll to my C:\Programme\e-novative\WAMP\php\ext folger which is set in php.ini:
extension_dir = "C:\Programme\e-novative\WAMP\php\ext\"

I hope i got he right php.ini in my Windows folder. At least it spins errors so he seems to get it that i chaged something. I added this two lines.

extension=php_imagick.dll
extension=php_exif.dll

So here we got the second extension i want to install. I installed the Imagick library but i dont think there is a Problem with imagick. I commented it out and had the same trouble with php_exif.dll

Anyone knows what i can do to get my extensions running?

Error Message comes up when i start Apache ... php_exif.dll can not be found. Than the apache.exe causes an Windows error which can be closed or send ot MS. That default hangup Window.

I also tried to put my extension to system32 but didn't work either. Just tried it cause i found some older extension dll's from a previous Wamp installation.

greets, i3

Those DLLs depend on other DLLs. This is a general PHP issue, not an >e-novative> WAMP problem.

Windows users must enable both the php_mbstring.dll  and php_exif.dll DLL's in php.ini. The php_mbstring.dll DLL must be loaded before the php_exif.dll DLL so adjust your php.ini accordingly.

You need the ImageMagick libraries from www.imagemagick.org or GraphicsMagick libraries from

You must put the required DLLs to a directory where PHP finds them (Windows\system32 is probably a good idea).
