DOMXML STUFF AGAIN! HELP!!!

Hi
Can anyone tell me how to go about Taminoapi.php stuff?Where to download the domxml from as well.
I have Apache 2,XP,Tamino and PHP4. But it would not work :(I tried everything in this forum.Maybe Im getting something wrong.
Tell me pls the neccessary DLL to copy and where to paste them. I followed this method but I still don know whats wrong.
I installed Apache->PHP4->Tamino and then DOMXML.
Please help…Im really desperate!
cheers

PS:
I used this for domxml

1) download the PHP-Win32 binary installation from www.php.net
2) download the PHP-Win32 ZIP package that contains all dll’s , extensions, APIs and stuff from www.php.net
3) Install PHP binary to c:\PHP
4) unzip the ZIP package to c:\PHP (you should see more subdirectories now)
4a) add the following lines to your Apache httpd.conf file:
LoadModule php4_module c:/php/sapi/php4apache2.dll
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
The c:/php/sapi/php4apache2.dll was contained in the PHP Win32 ZIP file that you extracted in step 2
5) open php.ini in C:\WINDOWS
6) in php.ini locate the extension path and change the line extension_dir = “./” to
extension_dir = “C:\PHP\extensions”
7) in php.ini locate the line ;extension=php_domxml.dll and remove the ; sign
8) copy iconv.dll from c:\php\dlls to c:\windows\system32
9) download domxml.zip from http://www.firepages.com.au/public/domxml.zip
10) copy the libxml2.dll from domxml.zip to c:\windows\system32
11) The php_domxml.dll should already exist in your c:\php\extensions directory (was also contained in PHP Win-32 ZIP file in step 2)
12) stop and restart your Apache / IIS

Could it be that the domxml file I downloaded in not good?Is there any other link to download this domxml?
cheers

Hi,
According to the installation instructions for PHP’s DOMXML here, the process for installation should be:

Windows users will enable (uncomment) php_domxml.dll inside of php.ini in order to use these functions. In PHP 4 this DLL resides in the extensions/ directory within the PHP Windows binaries download (so you should not need to download it again).
…snip…
Also, there is one additional DLL that must be made available to your system’s PATH in order for this extension to work. In PHP 4 this is in the dlls/ directory. It’s name:
For PHP <= 4.2.0, it’s libxml2.dll.
For PHP >= 4.3.0, it’s iconv.dll.
And as of PHP 5.0.0, iconv is compiled into your Windows PHP binaries by default so no extra DLL is needed.

So you need to make sure that these dlls are available in your PATH environment setting.
The best way to tell if the domxml extension is loaded correctly is to follow Heiko’s instruction from previous posts:

Then to test that everything worked ok, create a PHP script which has the following contents:

<?php phpInfo(); ?>

And then call that file. You should get an overview of you current installation and if all worked ok, then you should find a section with the title “domxml” and a line where it says “DOM/XML” and “enabled”.

Please check that and if you don’t find that, then your PHP is not configured correctly.

I have attached a sample test php page. Copy it to your Apache htdocs folder and point your browser to http://localhost/phptest.php. Then look for the domxml section in the output. If you still have problems, please tell us what version of PHP you are trying to use and what path you installed it to.
HTH

Thanks Bill,

Ill follow ur guide and hope it works.
Thanks Bull

Correct. My understanding is that because you already downloaded the PHP-Win32 ZIP package [that contains all dll’s , *** extensions ***, APIs and stuff] you already have the domxml extension. You just need to make it available by copying it to somewhere that’s in PATH.

Hi Bill,
You did it!After trying for 12days, copying icov.dll and libxml.dll to system32 instead of only icov.dll(depending on PHP though!!! for similar problems in the future)I also download domxml.zip from somewhere.I think that was the problem.Now Im fine.

One last question please…
The DOMXML is fine now but when I try to compile example01.php it gives HTTP ERROR 404!
I unzipped the taminoapi.php into the htdocs of apache and then called the file example01.php.
Heres the code

I created the database in the SMH and started it. The port is 80 I guess! Should there be a path to the database instead of just ‘mydb’ ? Wheres my database on my harddrive? In other native database(xindice),I was able to see my db but I cant find any ‘mydb’ folder on my harddrive. How can I eradicate the ERROR 404?
Thanks a lot
Kay
