[UNCLASSIFIED]RE: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] dl(): Unable to load dyna mic library

[Antti Roppola]

Hi all,

You must have root access to alter the linker cache.

Without access to root or Apache, pretty much the only option
is to use putenv() to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH. In order to do this,
you'll need to alter php.ini to allow putenv to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

I stress that there are serious security issues to ponder before
changing this default behaviour. After all, a compromised PHP page
could then be used to link against compromised libraries that have
been uploaded to the server.

My preference would be to try set LD_LIBRARY_PATH in php.ini and see
if that works.

No. I did not. 
Do you mean that I should add my library path to /etc/ld.so.conf and then do 'ldconfig'?

What if I do not have the superuser permissions?
