Can't make pdo_dblib to work

[jmaurin]

Hi.

I'm trying to compile and enable pdo_dblib, but isn't loading. I've downlaoded source code of PHP 7.1.16 (which is the same version that I'm using in my cpanel), entered dir 'ext/pdo_dblib' and done these commands to compile:
/opt/cpanel/ea-php71/root/usr/bin/phpize
./configure --with-php-config=/opt/cpanel/ea-php71/root/usr/bin/php-config --with-pdo-dblib=/opt/cpanel/freetds --with-libdir=/lib64
make

All runs fine. After 'make install', module are installed in correct location (/opt/cpanel/ea-php71/root/usr/lib64/php/modules/pdo_dblib.so). I also have enabled this module in correct php.ini, but when I try to load any script (including phpinfo()), I can't see this module.....module isn't loaded! And I can't see any errors, nothing.

Also tryied to manuallo load module with:
/opt/cpanel/ea-php71/root/usr/bin/php -dextension=/opt/cpanel/ea-php71/root/usr/lib64/php/modules/pdo_dblib.so myphpfile.php

But still not working, module looks not loaded and no errors. My question is: there is any block or anything else that I need to do?

Actually, this isn't the same thing. PDO_ODBC is enabled by EA4, this is not the problem. What I need to enable is PDO_DBLIB. If you get the source of PHP 7.1.16 (or any other) you will see this extension directory. I can compile fine, just load that isn't working.

Solved!
Tha problem is that dblig conflicts with odb extension, but without any error!
So you must disable ODBC extensons to load DBLIB. Now it's working fine. But would be even better if Cpanel could create an packet for dblib extensions, like other extensions, since it's an official extension from php source.

Hello @jmaurin,

I'm glad to see you were able to solve the issue. Do you mind sharing the specific steps you took to reproduce the error, and then to solve it, so we can have a better idea of what's happening?

Thank you.
