I build up a new development Windows with:
Windows 10 Prof. -
Apache 2.4.54 -
PHP 8.1.7
The problem is that PHP could not load the extension (it does not matter which one I activate).
Configuration in php.ini
extension_dir = "ext"
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; Dynamic Extensions ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
extension=curl
extension=mbstring
extension=openssl
In the apache Log throw the following message:
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'curl' (tried: ext\\curl (The specified module could not be found), ext\\php_curl.dll (The specified module could not be found)) in Unknown on line 0
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'mbstring' (tried: ext\\mbstring (The specified module could not be found), ext\\php_mbstring.dll (The specified module could not be found)) in Unknown on line 0
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'openssl' (tried: ext\\openssl (The specified module could not be found), ext\\php_openssl.dll (The specified module could not be found)) in Unknown on line 0
The installation paths are: c:\Webserver\Apache24
c:\Webserver\php
At first I thought of a permission problem, so I open the hole directory of "Webserver" to "everyone" with "full access", but this does not solve the problem.
Looks like I found the problem. After I added the path of the PHP folder to the Windows environment variables and restart windows, the error message was gone.
After downloading the latest version of pthread, coping php_pthreads.dll file into C:\xampp\php\ext folder and pthreadVC2.dll to C:\xampp\php folder and restarting apache, when i try to use composer update command i get this error:
PS C:\xampp\htdocs\xxx_pro> composer update
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'php_pthreads.dll' (tried: C:\xampp\php\ext\php_pthreads.dll (The specified module could not be found), C:\xampp\php\ext\php_php_pthre

here the name of php_pthreads file isn't php_php_pthreads.dll.dll and i'm interested why this file name is wrong on output
i also added "ext-pthreads": "*" to composer.json
I would like to install the php_bolt extension in php in order to encode my souces.
I have placed my php_bolt.dll file in the php extensions folder.
In my php.ini file I add the line extension=php_bolt.dll.
the extension is still not loaded. And I do not know why.
In command line I have the following error
PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'php_bolt.dll' (tried: G: /wamp64/bin/php/php7.2.25/ext/php_bolt.dll
(The specified module could not be found.), G:/wamp64/bin/php/php7.2.25/ext/php_php_bolt.dll.dll

Im trying to add the printer extension to laravel. But I don't know how to do this while using Laravel. It says that I have to add the php_printer.dll to php.ini. But I use Laravel. Does anyone know how I can add this extension to Laravel?
Link:
http://php.net/manual/fa/book.printer.php
Update:
I added the extension in the ext map but now it says that it can not be found
I get the following error:
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'php_printer.dll' (tried: C:\xampp\php\ext\php_printer.dll (The specified module could not be found.), C:\xampp\php\ext\php_php_printer.dll.dll (The specified module could not be found.)) in Unknown on line 0

Lets first get the terms right.
The extension you are adding isn't a laravel extension. It is a PHP extension. Laravel is a framework that is written in PHP.
You can not just add the directive into the php.ini file and expect it to work. You also need to install the files. In this case you need to get them from PECL.
The question of how to install is already asked and answereed here installing php_printer on wamp server
If you are using XAMPP, open it up and click on apache->config, you can find php.ini there.
when I try to run my unit tests, I get this error

Could somebody help me ? Thanks.
Running in PHPstorm, Win 10
You may need to edit your php.ini file and restart the server. Add absolute paths in php.ini configuration. It worked for xampp server in my windows 8.1 machine.
example:
extension_dir="\xampp\php\ext" to
extension_dir="C:\xampp\php\ext"
Reference: How to fix PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'ext\\php_curl.dll'?
Edit:
Additionally for my some cases, needs to edit
browscap="xampp\php\extras\browscap.ini" to
browscap="C:\xampp\php\extras\browscap.ini"
You are missing the b2z module for php.
Which is normally included in the php package for windows
I would suggest reinstalling php or manually moving the package from the download to the correct folder or switching to a vagrant environment.
Download:
https://windows.php.net/download/
In the folder ext/bz2
Move these folder contents over to the according folder.
Just comment out ;extension=pdo_sqlite in php.ini if you don't need it. It was enabled by default in my configuration and the error message is gone.
I had faced the same problem after updating my php version from 7.0 to the latest version which is 8.1.3 as for now , the solution I used was :-
Just comment the extension in the php.ini found in (C:\xampp\php\php.ini)
extension=gd2
Note: comment by prefixing semicolon at the start
I have fought with this for the last 12 hours on my Windows 10 box. For anyone having the same trouble I am having, you need to edit the php.ini to call out the full name of the DLL file. I had to change pdo_sqlite to php_pdo_sqlite.dll and sqlite3 to php_sqlite3.dll.
after adding php ext dir in php.ini, i also needed to add php dir to windows path (environment variables)
In your php.ini file,
find text=> extension=gd2
and make it ;extension=gd2
For windows 10 users, make open "XAMP" programe, then at apache click button "config"
then edit "php.ini".
#1- remove the semicolon (;) before this line
extension=php_gd.dll
#2- restart xamp
#Problem : when try to "composer update" print error:
Problem 1

- phpoffice/phpspreadsheet[1.15.0, ..., 1.25.2] require ext-gd * -> it is missing from your system. Install orall or enable PHP's gd extension.
- Root composer.json requires maatwebsite/excel ^3.1 -> satisfiable by maatwebsite/excel[3.1.0, ..., 3.1.x-dev.x-dev].
To enable extensions, verify that they are enabled in your .ini files:
- C:\xampp\php\php.ini
You can also run `php --ini` inside terminal to see which files are used by PHP in CLI mode.
