shared mysqlnd extension ...

Having now got mysql running on the PHP5.4.3 machine, I'm trying to compile
mysqlnd and mysqli as extensions to load and unload as required.

php_mysqlnd_config.h no longer exists, but why is the config file named
config9.m4 rather than config.m4? What do I need to get these two extensions to
build on Linux? My cuurent attempts based on google results only results in
"Warning: PHP Startup: Invalid library (maybe not a PHP library) 'mysqlnd.so' in
Unknown on line 0" after 'make'

I would try
--with-mysql=shared,mysqlnd --with-mysqli=shared,mysqlnd
--enable-pdo=shared --with-pdo-mysql=shared,mysqlnd
how are you doing currently?
why is this an internals question?

phpize in mysqlnd folder which is why config9.m4 does not work and has to be
renamed, but it's calling php_mysqlnd_config.h which also does not exist.
I do not want to touch the existing core install as that is what runs all my
sites, so I only need mysqlnd and mysqli as extra shared modules so I can switch
them off without affecting the current working system.

why is this an internals question?
Because no one answered on general :(
But since the core code base does not compile it seems internal to me anyway.

The bundled extensions are not designed to be built standalone using
phpize as you have discovered. The core codebase builds perfectly using
the procedure it was designed for. And you don't have to touch your core
install. Just add the flags or build in a separate directory if you are
worried and type make install-modules and it will install any shared
modules from that build without touching anything else. Or you can
simply copy the modules/*.so files you want to your extension_dir manually.

Except that mysqlnd does not build as a shared module even when doing a full
build. mysqli is fine built either way, and a standalone build of mysqlnd
creates a module without any warnings, just not one that works, but there seems
to be no way to flag from a core build that mysqlnd should be built shared?
There is no mysqlnd.so file to copy over, and only a stand alone build seems to
have the relevant flag :(

SO am I going to have to just create a parallel installation with mysqlnd
included statically? Will the thirty odd existing extensions still work with
that without having to recompile them? I ask since I understood that the
php-config file needed to match the base code, and this would change when
rebuilding the base code. In the past I've ended up recompiling everything just
to get a working set of extensions.

mysqlnd is not a standalone extension at all. It is infrastructure code
that needs to be linked into your PHP in order for extensions to use it.
Once you have that you can load shared mysql, mysqli and pdo_mysql
extensions against it. And no, it won't affect other extensions that
mysqlnd is there.

But again, this is a question for php-install, not internals. This is
pretty basic stuff.

OK that is the key piece of information I was missing. I though we had got over
the 'needs to be built in' and had made it optional!

I asked originally on php-general and was pointed to
Fixed bug http://bugs.php.net/55609 (mysqlnd cannot be built shared). (Johannes)
This specifically say ...
"It's also possible to use --enable-mysqlnd=shared"

SO I simply assumed that was the case, it does not give an error message like
other miss configurations do ...
AH - JUST use --enable-mysqlnd=shared and don't add the mysqli shared module at
the same time and the core build happily creates a shared module! But ...
"Unable to load dynamic library '/opt/php5/ext/mysqlnd.so' -
/opt/php5/ext/mysqlnd.so: undefined symbol: executor_globals in Unknown on line 0"

THIS the same problem I get if I don't recompile the extensions after changing
the core build and the feedback was that this is because of using incompatible
php-config files!

So should I be updating that bug to the current state of play? That this is
actually by design? Or create a new bug that states that
'--enable-mysqlnd=shared' should not be allowed? Or is there some third position
in this jigsaw?

Anyway I now have parallel apache modules one with and one without mysqlnd ...
after screwing up the entire machine because I forgot that php overwrites the
modules in apache even with apache running :(
Now to move all the mysql data over ...

It usually helps that the extension you compile is binary compatible
with the PHP build you're loading it in. In your case, I'd guess you
compiled PHP with ZTS support but mysqlnd without.

As to whether '--enable-mysqlnd=shared' actually works or not I can't
be sure as I haven't tested it. But there's nothing in the problem
you're having that points to it not working when built properly.

Current situation is that I've run a clean build of the Apache module with
mysqlnd included statically, and the mysqli extension is compiled as shared. If
I add the '--enable-mysqlnd=shared' then it does build a shared mysqlnd module,
but the module is unusable due to the 'executor_globals' error, so either there
should be no option TO build shared? Or the problem in the shared module needs
fixing?

What was causing me more confusion ( for the last two hours ) was that I could
not get the remote machine to connect to the database, so I was not sure if the
mysqli module was working at all. I've had to 'create' an extra set of users on
the PHP5.4 machine as 'localhost' will not work as a connection. I've found some
references to needing to use the ip address, and with some juggling I now have a
working connection on that machine via the domain name ... finally.

I've just tried to compile mysqlnd and mysqli shared and it worked (at
least sapi/cli/php -n -d extension_dir=modules -d extension=mysqlnd.so
-d extension=mysqli.so -i showed no problems).

It is at least conceivable that there's some bug I'm not hitting. In
any case, this is a development mailing list. So you can either try to
figure out the problem yourself using this mailing list asking for
pointers if necessary -- that means actually checking the source code,
inspecting symbols in the binaries, preprocessor defines after configure
etc. -- or you can file a bug report with clear, complete steps for
reproducing the problem.

Correct, it compiles fine, but what setup are you running your mysqlnd.so on?
This may simply be a problem with the Apache module build, but trying to include
mysqlnd.so gives an error and Apache

php_mysqlnd_config.h no longer exists, but why is the config file named
config9.m4 rather than config.m4? What do I need to get these two
extensions to build on Linux? My cuurent attempts based on google
results only results in "Warning: PHP Startup: Invalid library (maybe
not a PHP library) 'mysqlnd.so' in Unknown on line 0" after 'make'

File is called config9.m4, because this guarantees an order of run, if
it was config.m4 no order is guaranteed during configure. It was Jani's
idea.

So what happens when trying to just build mysqlnd as I do any other extra
module? Is simply renaming it the correct action?
