Well the error message you're getting says "I can't load the 
php_epics.so library because it in turn needs to load libCom.so which I 
can't find."

Run 'ldd /usr/local/lib/php/extensions/php_epics.so' to find out where 
it's trying to get libCom.so from - it's part of EPICS Base so should be 
installed in your base/lib/<host-arch> directory, but if you didn't 
compile that php_epics.so file on the web server machine then it might 
not be present.  In this case you should be able to fix it by copying 
libCom.so to the /usr/local/lib/php/extensions directory (you may also 
need libca.so in there as well).
