Note Submitter: chris -dot- chaudruc -at- gmail -dot- co ---- This took a while for me to figure out but hopefully it will save some time for others. Running Apache 2, PHP 5.1.1 on Windows XP and could not get mysql library to load. Extension path was correct in php.ini and the module resided in the correct spot. Discovered that libmysql.dll in the root php directory needs to be moved to C:\WINDOWS or be included in Windows paths in order for this module to load. From Zend: "Some modules depend of other libraries, like MySQL. In this case you need to copy libmysql.dll from your MySQL/bin installation directory to a directory in your PATH, like C:\WINDOWS" Copied over the file and mysql functionality was enabled.
