While working with the manually installed Firebird 5.0 and the
unmasked "firebird" USE flag @ PHP, now here's the next problem:
They removed the "firebird" USE flag from PHP!
Now the PHP script
$x = new PDO('firebird:dbname=...');
leads to
PHP Fatal error: Uncaught PDOException: could not find driver
I already tried the PHP extension "php_8.2.0-interbase-3.0.1-linux-x64.so"
from https://github.com/FirebirdSQL/php-firebird/releases but that leads to
PHP Warning: Module "interbase" is already loaded
PHP Fatal error: Uncaught PDOException: could not find driver
On https://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.pdo-firebird.php it is mentioned
"Use --with-pdo-firebird[=DIR] to install the PDO Firebird extension,
where the optional [=DIR] is the Firebird base install directory."
$ ./configure --with-pdo-firebird
I'd really like to do that, but how?
