note 45109 rejected from install.windows.extensions by vincent

Note Submitter: kindley at the-performance-group dot com ---- I just installed php5. (on my windows XP system. I have been running 4.3 no problem) My Problem: I get the error: warning PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'c:/php5/php_mysql.dll' - The specified procedure could not be found. Apparently, it cannot locate my extensions. (php runs, but for instance, I can't run any mysql queries, etc.) I changed my Apache conf file to reflect the new installation. In php.ini 1. It could not find extensions when using the default (and it looked in c:/php5, as the installation manual states it will do). 2. I then changed the extension_dir setting to the c:/php5 directory. No luck. 3. I changed the php directory name from c:/php5 tp c:/php and changed the php.ini extension_dir command to reflect this. No luck. As well as changing the direction of the slashes (from \ to / and back again). 4. I have even copied the extension directory elsewhere on my drive and then changing the extension_dir command to reflect this. Again, no luck. 5. I also changed the autoexec.bat path statement and included c:/php5 (as well as the old c:/php). No impact. What am I missing? Any ideas? Thanks!
