Hi folks!

I've serious problems for installing new versions of XAMPP (for Linux) that come with PHP 5.3 (such as 1.7.2 and 1.7.3a). I've tested that on Karmic Koala Ubuntu.

The message obtained after add extension xmlrpc.so (coming in php5-xmlrpc's debian package) and restart lamp is:
" undefined symbol: second_arg_force_ref in Unknown on line 0 ".

I've followed these instructions to add support for XMLRPC: viewtopic.php?f=17&t=34264

Finally, i've got back to a version of XAMPP based on PHP 5.2, exactly XAMPP 1.6.7, since I haven't knew how to solve it!

Anyone knows a solution? This issue is important for next generation of XAMPP.

Ouch! You cannot use Debian PHP Modules in Xampp Environment.

If you like to use Debian Modules, dont install Xampp but install Debians Apache (and PHP, MySQL etx.) instead.

Thanks Nobbie.

Are you sure that "apt-get install php5-xmlrpc" is not the way to get XMLRPC support on Ubuntu for XAMPP? I've used XAMPP on Ubuntu until now.

I like XAMPP and Ubuntu, both at the same time

Could you explain me why Debin Packages and XAMPP don't match.

Thanks in advance! And sorry if my question wasn't suitable

Yes.

Because they depend on different distributions and releases. Its quite the same that you cannot mix Debian and OpenSuSE, or Ubuntu and RedHat etc. You cannot mix binaries (especially not moduies) from different distributions.
