[Xapian-discuss] warning: dl() [function.dl]: xapian: Unable to initialize module Module compiled with module API=20050922

[Ron Parker]

Thank you for the response.  How do I rebuild the bindings against the version of PHP I have installed?  I installed Xapian using yum:

# rpm -ivh http://rpm.eprints.org/rpm-eprints-org-key-1-1.noarch.rpm
# rpm -ivh http://rpm.eprints.org/xapian/6/noarch/rpm-eprints-org-xapian-6-1.noarch.rpm
# yum update
# yum install xapian-omega xapian-bindings-{php,python,tcl8,perl,ruby}

I thought this would have done that, but apparently not.  How do I rebuild the bindings?

Thanks!

This isn't really a Xapian-specific problem - it's a PHP version
mismatch.

The error means the PHP bindings you're trying to use were built for an
older version of PHP.  The PHP developers make binary-incompatible
changes to the module API sometimes.

You're either going to need to install that older PHP version (one which
has "module API=20050922" - a quick poke in google suggests that means
PHP 5.1.x) or rebuild the bindings against the version of PHP you have
installed.
