Still doesn't work. I moved both (opt/,debug/) yet it only works when the bundled libmysql.dll is in the WINDOWS directory. Aside from bin/ no other such files exist (even tried moving the one from bin/! :) Regards, Philip P.S. I was mistaken earlier, the setting of user environment variables (as opposed to system environment variables) does not work for PHPRC. Only system does which makes sense in that apache is not running as my user.
