By using the –enable-dba=shared configuration
option you can build a dynamic loadable module to enable PHP for
basic support of dbm-style databases. You also have to add support
for at least one of the following handlers by specifying the
–with-XXXX or
–enable-XXXX configure
switch to your PHP configure line.
After configuring and compiling PHP you must
execute the following test from commandline: php run-tests.php
ext/dba. This shows whether your combination of handlers
works. Most problematic are dbm and ndbm which
conflict with many installations. The reason for this is that on
several systems these libraries are part of more than one other
library. The configuration test only prevents you from configuring
malfunctioning single handlers but not combinations.
