Just a quick note which may help Windows users setting up PHP/Apache/MySQL. I was receiving these two error messages on Apache startup: 1) "The procedure entry point mysql_thread_end could not be located in the dynamic link library LIBMYSQL.dll" and 2) "PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '<my php installation dir>/ext/php_mysql.dll' - The specified procedure could not be found". After checking that libmysql.dll did exist in my root PHP install dir, and that this dir was in my path, I determined that the problem was an older version of libmysql.dll. My solution was to search all harddrives for this file (I found 6 copies of 5 different versions), and rename all of them except my PHP install dir copy. PHP, Apache and MySQL all function as expected after making this change. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/faq.databases.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+51118 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+51118&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+51118&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+51118&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+51118&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+51118&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+51118&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
