All libraries are open on php.ini file. I have checked them all. I am wondering why command line tries to run library in incorrect path like

'/usr/local/php5/ext\php_xsl.dll'

Does it should be like 

'/usr/local/php5/ext/php_xsl.dll'

?

    It's ovious that /usr/local/php5/...is a ...nix path and not an Window$ path. Adjust your php.ini settings (extensions) according to your installation. Search for the php_xls.dll on your disks, and you probably have the proper path for the extensions. Commented Aug 20, 2014 at 22:19

Open your php.ini file and set the following setting to a Windows file path:

extension_dir = "X:/path/to/your/php/ext"

On Windows, paths that point to something on a normal hard drive have to start with a letter and then a colon, like "C:". Paths that start with a forward slash, /, are Unix-like paths, and will not work on Windows.

Adjust the following value in php.ini:

; Directory in which the loadable extensions (modules) reside.
extension_dir = "C:\path to extension directory"

I have 7.4 php version. I solved this by uncommenting the following line by removing ; inside the php.ini file.

extension_dir = "ext"

Note that initially, if you won't have php.ini file you should first copy and paste php.ini-development file and rename it as php.ini.

You can also specify the extensions directory without using the full path if it's in the same folder, at least in PHP 7.2.5 (have not tested other versions).

Example:

extension_dir = "ext"

Where ext is your extensions directory.

Check the dll / library path from the error and make sure it's correct. Updating /php.ini-> extension_dir to the correct path solves my problem.

It worked for me to change the version of the library, I used the last one (1.19.2 for PHP 8.2.1) but I solved it by changing to 1.19.0
