RE: [PHP-DB] PHP5 not loading mysql.dll and mysqli.dll
may be you have not uncommented extension_dir=c:/php/ext/ (Directory in which the loadable extensions (modules) reside) please check. balwant -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, August 18, 2004 3:47 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP-DB] PHP5 not loading mysql.dll and mysqli.dll I've been trying to install mysql. I installed that new PHP5 that just came out with the zip file. I configured in php.ini where the .dll files are: c:/php/ext/. Then I uncommented php_mysql.dll and php_mysqli.dll. When I restarted apache 1.3.31, my server, it said that it could not find those files in c:/php/ext/. EX) PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'c:/php/ext/php_mysql.dll' - the specified module could not be found. Though the file is right there. So then I did research and found that those files needed libmysql.dll and libmysqli.dll to load. However, those files are already sitting nice and cozy in c:/php, and I copied them to c:/php/ext just in case.

Put the libmysql.dll files in the windows/system32/ directory. That fixed everything for me. If you have had a previous version of PHP, make sure that you copy the libmysql.dll that came with the PHP5 zip and overwrite the existing file . I am too embarassed to admit how long it took me to figure this out :) -- Rory McKinley Nebula Solutions +27 21 555 3227 - office +27 21 551 0676 - fax +27 82 857 2391 - mobile www.nebula.co.za This e-mail is intended only for the person to whom it is addressed and may contain confidential information which may be legally privileged.
