RE: [PHP-DB] PHP to MS SQL Package
Hi, I have changed the freetds.conf file at the server section to the following: # A typical Microsoft server [egServer70] host = 192.168.10.129 port = 1433 tds version = 4.2 I noticed that the pinging and telnet to the server is error free like everything else you suggested below. However, I did notice that on my PHP configuration page, I see no information with MS SQL on the page like Gary described in another post. I am not sure if I would see this to make sure that my PHP would be able to connect to the MS SQL server. I did notice that after having added the above lines, it does not take as long for me to see that it is not connected to the server. I have made attempts to have another person use another programming language to connect using the same user name and password, and he could connect and I could not. Are there other things I might have missed?

Re: [PHP-DB] PHP to MS SQL Package
http://php.he.net/manual/en/mssql.installation.php Installation The MSSQL extension is enabled by adding extension=php_mssql.dll to php.ini. To get these functions to work, you have to compile PHP with --with-mssql[=DIR], where DIR is the FreeTDS install prefix. And FreeTDS should be compiled using --enable-msdblib. Did you actually do a compile ... --with-mssql=/usr/local/freetds ... I saw you asked ./configure [--with-apxs --with-mysql...] You actually meant mssql, right? But I didn't see a reply about that. I searched for --with-mssql in my emails and did not see that in your thread, but saw Claudio Saavedra's thread from Jan 12, 2007 'Problem with PHP 4.4.4 and MSSQL in Centos' also mentioning --with-sybase, but his solution was I fixed it by compiling again php with --with-mssql instead of --with-sybase. Now it works perfectly. So again, I'd recommend compiling --with-mssql. By the way anybody, why would I compile --with-sybase if I want to use MSSQL commands? I just checked my phpinfo on an install that has mysql and mssql. I don't even see a --with-mysql or --with-mssql like on previous servers, but I see additional .ini files parsed which mentions /etc/php.d/mssql.ini and /etc/php.d/mysqli.ini. Enjoy!

Re: [PHP-DB] PHP to MS SQL Package
Make sure some where in your php.ini you have a line that looks like this and is not commented out: extension=mssql.so I haven't used a fedora box as a php webserver in over a year, so my memory of their config file layout is pretty rusty. However, I'm pretty sure they consolidate everything into a single .ini file. I always add a phpinfo.php file to my project so I can run it and see which .ini file apache is using to configure php. All you have to put in the phpinfo.php file is this line: ?php phpinfo(); ? If you visit that page and look around, it will tell you where the php.ini file is. Also, once you have mssql enabled, there will be a section in the phpinfo.php page with all the mssql options. So, looking at the phpinfo.php file is another good way to tell if you have mssql installed properly. Good luck! Ken On Thu, Jun 12, 2008 at 12:58 PM, Wei, Alice J.
