Hi,

  I am not sure what is exactly the problem with my configurations while I am 
trying to configure Apache, PHP and FreeTDS throughout my attempts to install 
these packages into my Linux.

 It appears that I am doing everything correctly as I am going through 
listservs, forums and online articles for the configurations, but there is 
something that goes wrong. So far I have noticed that in my phpinfo() page, I 
still don't see the mssql packages listed as I should have.

  Some things I need to be clarified:


1.      I noticed that in http://us.php.net/mssql, it mentioned how we are 
supposed to add extension=mssql.so in the php.ini file, while in other places I 
was told to uncomment extension=php_mssql.dll. It appears that this did not 
give me the right configurations, still, even though the installation did 
suggest that mssql support is yes.



2.      I used the following to configure my PHP AFTER I had installed and 
compiled FreeTDS like most of you said, ./configure 
--with-mssql=/usr/local/freetds --prefix=/usr/local/php, but every single time, 
it gives me this: Directory /usr/local/freetds is not a FreeTDS installation 
directory



Could this signify the reason why I cannot see PHP configured with MSSQL 
connection? If yes, why is it possible that the support for MSSQL in the 
php.ini file has been commented out?


Thanks in advance.
