The extension you are trying to use is not configured or not installed.

In order to run an extension, you need (path names are
for FreeBSD, yours may vary for Linux):
(a) The extension PHP module (in this case, xml.so)
in /usr/local/lib/php/20020429/
(b) A line in /usr/local/etc/php/extensions.ini containing
a line for the extension: extensions=xml.so
and it must not have a semicolon in front of it.
(c) Any library/libraries required by the extension, in
this case: /usr/local/lib/libxml2.so
After you have fixed any of these, stop and restart Apache.
