I have a weird PHP problem. I am running PHP 5 on IIS in Windows 7. When I make a call to socket_create in my PHP file, like so:
$sock = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, getprotobyname('udp'));
I get the following error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function socket_create() ...
I have tried everything, ranging from enabling extension=php_sockets.dll
in php.ini, php.ini-development and php.ini-production to restarting IIS and rebooting my computer.
However, I keep getting the same error and am confused. So far I have found no solution on the internet, as I have tried everything.
Also worth of mentioning. The dll is clearly installed in one of the subfolders.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Type in the following command from your command line:
php --ini
That will tell you which php.ini file is being loaded. I suspect you are running websockets from the command line, and your php is initializing a different config file when in CLI mode.
