Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-03-14 13:18:19] kate dot dubiel at landoll dot com Then maybe the installation page should point to the PECL version instead of the Microsoft version? (http://us.php.net/manual/en/sqlsrv.installation.php) That's what led me to assume it was the Microsoft version that was supported. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-03-14 01:40:39] aharvey@php.net The manual typically documents PECL extensions, and PECL sqlsrv is still at 2.0.1. I'll ping jguerin to see if they're planning to update PECL to version 3. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-03-13 19:21:50] kate dot dubiel at landoll dot com Corrected email address. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-03-13 19:18:23] kate dot dubiel at landoll dot com Here's the info from Microsoft on the new version. http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=20098 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-03-13 19:13:29] kate dot dubiel at landoll dot com Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/sqlsrv.requirements --- The MS SQL Driver for PHP (aka sqlsrv extension) went to version 3.0 on March 6. This version requires the SQL Server 2012 Native Client, not the 2008 as stated on this page. The new version is available at the same link you posted for version 2.0, but your links to the Native Client downloads and information need to be updated. Also, the "vc9" and "vc6" designators are apparently no longer used in the dll file names. I presume this version will only support 5.3.x or higher versions of PHP, which are compiled with vc9(?) Test script: --------------- n/a Expected result: ---------------- I would like to see the documentation updated to reflect the new requirements. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=61377&edit=1
