title: Adding ODBC to MAMP
body: <p>I've spent the last couple days trying to get ODBC installed and I am about to lose my mind, I'm way out of my element here. Please can some one help me before I fall to pieces. Here's what I'm trying:</p>
  
  <p>1) Download 1.7.2 source code package found here (I'm using 1.7.2): <a href="http://www.mamp.info/en/downloads/index.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.mamp.info/en/downloads/index.html</a></p>
  
  <p>2) CD into the php directory.</p>
  
  <p>3) Run "/configure --with-iodbc=shared"</p>
  
  <p>4) Run "make"</p>
  
  <p>5) Copy the ./modules/odbc.so file into MAMP/bin/PHP5/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20050922</p>
  
  <p>6) Add "extension=odbc.so" to php.ini</p>
  
  <p>When I restart MAMP Pro, it doesn't show up in phpinfo(). Also, when I check the PHP log, I see:</p>
  
  <p>"[16-Sep-2009 16:14:10] PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Invalid library (maybe not a PHP library) 'odbc.so' in Unknown on line 0"</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas?</p>
