I downloaded php-4.3.10 and tried to create a simple extension. I
followed instructions exactly as ext_skel told. I modified config.m4
only in the PHP_ARG_ENABLE() lines. I ran buildconf, configure
--with-foo, make and then ./sapi/cli/php -f ext/foo/foo.php.

To get this error:

[deep@deepak-linux php-4.3.10]$ ./sapi/cli/php -f ext/foo/nscli.php

Warning: dl(): Unable to load dynamic library
'/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20020429/foo.so' -

Could someone please help me?

Many thanks in advance,
Deepak
