Thanks for the speedy response! I just commented out "extension=php_mssql.dll" and it all works perfectly now. Apache starts and I have "hello world" up and running. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-11-23 09:08:27] [email protected] Do you need the mssql extension? If not simply comment out the mssql lines in your php.ini. I'll look into this problem (not sure why it did not install it). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-11-23 08:47:13] ben dot arnold dot spam at hotmail dot com Any suggestions for a workaround would be much appreciated. As it stands I am not able to install PHP at all! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-11-23 08:40:41] ben dot arnold dot spam at hotmail dot com Description: ------------ I am running Apache 2.2.14. I do not have a database installed. What I did: 1. Downloaded latest version of PHP (php-5.3.1-Win32-VC6-x86.msi) 2. Ran the installer using default values except: * Web server: Apache 2.2.x Module * Apache configuration directory: C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\conf\ 3. Tried to start Apache. 4. Tried to run PHP by entering "php" in a command window. What happened: 1. Apache failed to start. A dialogue box says "The requested operation has failed" and Windows error reporting kicked in. There is no error in Apache's error.log. 2. When I tried to start php I get an error dialogue box titled "php.exe - Unable To Locate Component". The text of the box is: This application has failed to start because ntwdblib.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem. What I expected to happen: 1. I expected that Apache would start with PHP loaded as a module. I expected to be able to put a php file in my htdocs directory and that I could get it to display a Hello World message when I requested it through Apache. 2. I expected PHP to display usage information when run from the commandline. I have tried uninstalling PHP, downloading the installer again and reinstalling but I have the same problem. When I uninstall PHP Apache works normally again. I have Googled this error message and seen various people report that it is connected to a database misconfiguration. I currently do not have a database installed and have done nothing to configure one in PHP. All my configuration steps are listed above. I am unable to "copy ntwdblib.dll from MSSQL 2000" as suggested in bug #38849 because I do not have MSSQL installed. In any case that bug looks like it is related to a different problem (I am not trying to connect to a database I am just trying to launch PHP). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=50268&edit=1
