Hi had this one myself with the same Apache and PHP releases, though
fortunately I'd turned the error messaging on so I got the error message on
the browser rather than having to look at log files.

The problem for me at least was that I had not moved the libmysql.dll (that
is libmysql.dll NOT php_mysql.dll which references the libmysql.dll) to my
C:\windows\system32 directory.

regards,

Chris Hunt
