Like many people I have an aversion to any software starting "MS", but
it took me less than 2 minutes to find the answer to your problem.

http://uk3.php.net/manual/en/mssql.setup.php

"Copying ntwdblib.dll will only provide access through named pipes.
Configuration of the client will require installation of all the tools."
...
"The Client Tools can be installed from the MS SQL Server CD"

--- Begin Message --- I am using php 5.2 with mysql 5 and I would like to initiate mbstring with gd2 for use with webasyst.

I have added c:\php to windows path and in the php.ini the session_mbstring and session_gd is activated. the php_gd2.dll is in the right place. But when I let the webasyst install script check, I get the answer that there is no mbstring and no gd support installed. Anny ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance.

to active extensions you need to have

extension=php_gd2.dll
extension-php_mbstring.dll

In your php.ini - I have no idea what "session_mbstring" but it has nothing to do with loading extensions.

thanks
Elizabeth Smith

p.s. - make sure you check phpinfo(); and check the php.ini file that is being loaded
