Well first at all... you guys have a terrific site going on in here... lots and lots of help and people commited to bring solutions to others. That's just great.

I've surfed across hundreds of post to find a solution for my specific problem and that didn't happen, so I'm here to explain my situation:

I love that everything be as minimalistic as possible, so I always do manual installations of Apache, PHP and MySQL for my developments.

At the moment of this post this are my versions:

- Apache v2.2.13 (ASF)
- PHP v5.2.11 (with APC, dBase, LDap, MySQL and OCI8)
- MySQL v5.1.39

And as everyone in here, that version combo causes a crash, so I've just downgraded the libmySQL.dll with the one bundled with PHP (libmySQL.dll v5.0.51a), so it's working.

That served me to develop a webApp with ExtJS v2, but the innevitable upgrade to ExtJS v3 is imminent. And the improvements in PHP v5.3 looks terrific for my style of coding (Namespacing, Lambada functions and the mod for Ternary Operator).

I've seen that support for dBase was dropped and for my project is just VITAL, so I've come across the idea of building myself my own trimmed version of PHP v5.3 with native support for the extensions loaded and drop some other that I don't need (odbc, Phar, etc...) that'll make it safer and maybe faster.

For the moment this is my tree:

Code:

.
 ---apache
|    ---bin
|   |       httpd.exe
|   |       libapr-1.dll
|   |       libapriconv-1.dll
|   |       libaprutil-1.dll
|   |       libhttpd.dll
|   |
|    ---conf
|   |       httpd.conf
|   |       mime.types
|   |
|   \---modules
|           mod_dir.so
|           mod_mime.so
|
 ---mysql
|   |   my.ini
|   |
|    ---bin
|   |       libmySQL.dll (v5.0.51a)
|   |       mysqld.exe
|   |
|    ---data
|   |   \---mysql
|   |          * Tables to make MySQL function properly *
|   |
|   \---share
|        ---charsets
|       |       Index.xml
|       |
|       \---english
|               errmsg.sys
|
 ---oracle
|   |   oci.dll
|   |   oraociicus10.dll
|   |
|   \---network
|       \---admin
|               TNSNAMES.ora
|
 ---php
|   |   php.ini
|   |   php5apache2_2.dll
|   |   php5ts.dll
|   |
|   \---ext
|           php_apc.dll
|           php_dbase.dll
|           php_ldap.dll
|           php_mysql.dll
|           php_oci8.dll
|
 ---tmp
|       apache.log
|       apache.pid
|       mysql.log
|       mysql.pid
|
\---www
    * my webroot *



At last I load the libraries into Apache with:

Code:

LoadFile /server/mysql/bin/libmysql.dll
LoadFile /server/oracle/oci.dll
LoadModule php5_module /server/php/php5apache2_2.dll
    PHPIniDir /server/php


...so I don't have to copy over any place when updating, the question in here (once you knew my setup) how to compile (or where to find the info+tools) PHP v5.3 with support for dBase (dropping many built-in stuff that I don't need and use MySQLnd) plus to be fully compatible with ApacheLounge httpd server (VC9 as I've read), besides weight loss: 5.3mb for php is way too much compared with the 1.3mb on the v4.4 (the first one I've used).


???


Thanks in advance at least for reading all thit bs! But I feel like exploding when all this time is passing and I can't find a solution for my needs, so advice plz!!!



Edgar.

if you don't want the built-in stuff in PHP you have to compile PHP yourself.

Sure, if you compile PHP with VS9 aka VS 2008 it shall work. On the http://windows.php.net/download/ there is a VS9 build whoch wirks for me with AL apache.

Only issue: on computers where isn't a compiler installed and it is below Vista or server 2008 you have to install the Microsoft 2008 C++ Runtime (x86). But that is no real issue if you know it.


If you have trouble there is a mailing "Windows Internals list" is on http://php.nlledet/mailing-lists.php

I'm kinda of confident when runtimes are installed, so dependencies are fullfilled.

Well, I think this is done...

Thankyou for your kind help.
