Why Does PHP Throw a 'Unable to Load Dynamic Library' Warning and How Can I Fix It?

Troubleshooting PHP Warning: Unable to Load Dynamic Library

Upon executing a PHP script, you may encounter the following error:

PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/ixed.5.2.lin' - /usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/ixed.5.2.lin: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0

The error stems from an extension directive in one of your PHP configuration files (typically php.ini) attempting to load the 'ixed.5.2.lin' extension. However, the extension file or the specified path does not exist or has incorrect permissions.

To resolve the issue:

1. Search for Extension Directive: Review the php.ini file (or any other loaded PHP configuration files) using 'phpinfo()' to determine which file contains the directive trying to load the problematic extension.

2. Correct Path or Remove Directive:

   • If the extension file is indeed absent or in a different location, correct the path in the extension directive.
   • If the file cannot be found or the issue persists, comment out or remove the corresponding extension directive to prevent PHP from attempting to load it.
