Installing dBase extension in XAMPP

Question

I have a problem with installing dBase extension in XAMPP with PHP 5.5.11. I added php_dbase.dll to php/ext folder and added following line to the php.ini file:

extension=php_dbase.dll

But when I try this code in my script:

dbase_open('file.dbf');

I got an error message:

Call to undefined function dbase_open()'

How to properly install dBase extension?

In WHM, go to `Software > Module Installers` then click in `Manage` in PHP PECL line. `Search for "dbase" > Install`! CENTOS 6.8 x86_64 kvm – cPanel & WHM 64.0 (build 36) — Heitor, Aug 29 '17 at 22:24

Try with this link: http://pecl.php.net/package/dbase/5.1.0/windows

In my case i have: XAMPP 1.8.3 [PHP: 5.5.15]

And i use: php_dbase-5.1.0-5.5-ts-vc11-x86.zip

Download the correct version for your PHP windows environmet.

You need to check in PHP directory is file php_gmp.dll enable and if it does, then in php.ini add this string in extensions section:

extension=php_gmp.dll

Thanks, I did it already, but it didn't help. I restarted the Apache server too. – user3740742 Jul 25 '14 at 10:51

You need to to check the php_dbase.dll is compatiable with your php version.

here i am using php 5.3.27 ThreadSafe version with vc9 and i downloaded the php_dbase-5.3-svn-20101022-vc9-x86.zip file from http://downloads.php.net/pierre/ and i did same all above you mentioned.

everything is working for me.
