RE: [PHP-WIN] Localhost does not work

I replaced the ntwdblib.dll file with the latest downloaded online and localhost works now. I found this online: I had problems connecting to MSSQL Server on port 1433 using PHP 5 on Windows 2003 Server. Whenever i tried to connect to database on a remote/local server, php tried to connect using named pipes, instead of connecting on 1433. If i disable Named pipes on the Server, the connection fails. As mentioned in one of the posts,from the \\Windows\\system32\\ folder, i copied and old ntwdblib.dll (dated 2000) to the php folder, and overwrote the newer file, dated 2005, that comes with php5 and suddenly, everything starts working. -----Original Message----- From: Harpreet [mailto:harpreet@crispincorp.com] Sent: Thursday, August 10, 2006 12:55 PM To: Ariz Jacinto Cc: php-windows@lists.php.net Subject: RE: [PHP-WIN] Localhost does not work Yes, it does ot work for localhost or 127.0.0.1.
