In addition I supply a sample configuration file, ingres.ini, that has all the php.ini settings. You can either copy and [...]

I have finally put out a release of the PECL driver for Ingres – you can get hold of the package from http://pecl.php.net/ingres or if you are a windows user pre-built DLLs can be found on http://pecl4win.php.net. See the CHANGELOG for the new additions. powered by performancing firefox

Last friday, version 1.1 (alpha) was release to PECL. The source code can be downloaded from there for UNIX/Linux, even Windows if you know how to do builds. For non-dev types its possible to download the latest php_ingres.dll from snaps.php.net, (for PHP 5.0). Not quite sure what will happen with getting an updated dll for [...]
I have made available the php_ingres.dll for php 4.3.11. It was built against 3.0.2 build 110. I have no idea if it will work against Ingres 2.6 or before. If you need such a dll please let me know.
