Use the x64 builds available here too: http://windows.php.net/download/ Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-04-30 11:56:09] jmichae3 at yahoo dot com Description: ------------ php.exe for windows, php-5.5.11-Win32-VC11-x86.zip is actually fails with a 64-bit redst only. I had to learn with VC++ that the compiler targets ar eunder different dirs. i will give you a clue that arm is not a platform for for compilers. see http://jesusnjim.com/programming/compilers/ms-vs.html#which-cl Test script: --------------- I extracted php-5.5.11-Win32-VC11-x86.zip I think I had maybe both redists installed and everything was working fine. I must have, because this was working before. I uninstalled them both and reinstalled the redist for VS2012u4x64 ONLY. ran php Expected result: ---------------- 64-bit exe that's actually 64-bit. the different dirs under the VC bin directory are the different target compilers. the left side of _ is the host, the right side is the target. like x86_amd64 is an x86 hosted compiler (compiler made for x86) but generates code for amd64. and /Qpar /volatile:ms parallelizes your loops where possible (makes them run 4-8x faster). Actual result: -------------- I got an 'msvcr110.dll is missing' error. i installed the x86 redist. then php would run. this tells me you used the 32-bit-target compiler when you wanted to target amd64. OR, the redists got swapped at microsoft (it's possible, an msdn guy has the same problem) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=67157&edit=1
