  • If the error message tells you that the file `C:\xampp\php\ext\php_chilkat_9_5_0.dll` is not found, and your explorer does not display such a file, isn't that a good indicator that this file is missing? – Nico Haase Jun 17 '21 at 09:32
  • Also, the installation documentation at https://www.chilkatsoft.com/installPhpWindows.asp tells you to use `extension=chilkat_9_5_0.dll` in php.ini (as far as I see, you forgot to add `.dll` at the end) – Nico Haase Jun 17 '21 at 09:34
  • Did you copy **both** chilkat_9_5_0.php and chilkat_9_5_0.dll to the PHP extensions directory? – Chilkat Software Jan 04 '21 at 17:19
  • I have copy only chilkat_9_5_0.dll into PHP extensions directory. Should we copy chilkat_9_5_0.php to PHP extensions directory as well as? I have copied both files into PHP extensions directory and check again but error still there and not working. – Dhiren Jan 05 '21 at 07:04

well first of all you need to find if your PHP is NTS (None Thread Safe) or TS (Thread Safe) by phpinfo()

as you can see thread safety is enabled which means that PHP is TS

and my PHP version is 7.2.34 x64 which means that i have to download

chilkat PHP 7.2.* (thread-safe) x64

after installation place chilkat_9_5_0.dll in (C:\xampp\php\ext) if you are using xamp my default require() is at (C:\xampp\php\pear) so move chilkat_9_5_0.php to (C:\xampp\php\pear)

in the php.ini search for dynamic extension and below add ( extension=chilkat_9_5_0.dll ) with the .dll

restart XAMP and test it with the given test.php file in the downloads and it should work
