All of these extensions needs additional dlls. They are usual in the
PHP directory.
--> add the PHP directory to the (system) PATH environment variable.
(Maybe a restart is required).

Description:
------------
I can repeat the behaviour reported by "usai roberto" in bug #5764 
(http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=5764) but this bug is closed so I 
cannot add to it.

It relates to loading extension dll files.  I can load the extension 
"php_gd2.dll", but if I try to load any of "php_mysql.dll", 
"php_mysqli.dll" or "php_mcrypt.dll"

When I start apache (which attempts to load php as a module) I get a 
pop-up saying:

"PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 
'c:\server\php\ext\php_mcrypt.dll' - The specified module could not be

found"

Similar messages appear for the other two mysql dll files also.  Then 
a second series of three identical popups is displayed.  Apache still 
runs, and php is available, but as soon as, for example mysql is 
accessed in a script I get the familiar "Fatal error: Call to 
undefined function mysql_connect()..." 

Importantly, all four of these files are within the same directory 
which I can guarantee is that referred to by my php.ini file.  And 
seeing as php_gd2.dll is accessed, one would assume that the 
extension_dir value is correctly set.

Interestingly these errors only occur when using php via apache.  

That is, if I run "php -i" from the command line, no such error 
occurs.  Comparing the output from php -i to that of the <?php 
phpinfo(); ?> command (accessed via apache) I can see that the value 
of "extension_dir" and "Loaded configuration File" show exactly the 
same values in both.  However the "php -i" version contains a mysql 
and mysqli section whereas the webpage version does not.

I've been playing with this for literally days now, and would REALLY 
love a solution.

My software versions are as follows:

PHP 5.2.9-2 (cli) (built: Apr  9 2009 08:23:19)
Copyright (c) 1997-2009 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.2.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2009 Zend Technologies

Apache
Server version: Apache/2.2.11 (Win32)
Server built:   Dec 10 2008 00:10:06

Mysql (not that I think it matters)
mysqld  Ver 5.1.34-community for Win32 on ia32 (MySQL Community Server

(GPL))

Windows XP
Home Edition
Version 2002
Service Pack 3


Will be happy to provide any further information.

Kind Regards,

David Bastow
