Unable to load dinamyc link library php_mysql.dll and everything are right In the php.ini's we should remove the line: ;extension=php_mysql.dll Since mysql is included. [7 Dec 2004 2:53pm CET] tomas2002 at tiscali dot cz Well, the solution is to copy the libmysql.dll from php directory to some path where it can be found, for example winnt/system32 or set the windows paths to php directory where is this library and everything should be ok .. It's all bullshit. I wasted a week and it still does not work. i removed all files put php_mysql.dll into all possible folders- windows etc, sytem32, system and whatever put libmysql.dll everywhere. removed all one by one etc etc. unquoted extension=php_mysql.dll, showed extension_dir - all possible ways - quoted, unquoted, slash, backslash, no slash at the end, low case underline configured httpd, put c:\php5 and c:\php\bin into the PATH – environmental variables did this, did that, , reloaded every time probably 500 different variations. still f... program can not load php_mysql.dll. I do not know what is this. System: windows 32, windows XP home edition , PHP5 and mysql 4.02 - And by the way when I try log other extensions – like php_*.dll They do not log in as well. So do not tell me crap, that it is just mysql problem or PHP.ini problem All the stuff was supplied on a CD from the book: PHP, MYSQL and Apache all in one. Still all that crap does not work. Don't know what to do. Will probably try to remove everything and go with lower version of PHP4 and mysql, if can find good one. For those who just unquoted and fixed the problem - they were lucky. Reproduce code: --------------- extension_dir= c:/php5/ext/ (or whatever - any possible variaton, like 'c:\php5\ext) extension=php_mysql.dll Expected result: ---------------- I expect MySQL can be connected by PHP on Apache php_mysql.DLL should be loaded Actual result: -------------- : Unable to load dynamic library 'c:\php5\ext\php_mysql.dll' - The specified procedure could not be found. as well 'c:/php5/ext/php_mysql.dll' and actually 'c:/php5/ext/php_*.dll' - where * = anything in PHP.ini file - mysqli, mssl etc - It happens when I restart appache ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=33356&edit=1
