RE: [PHP-WIN] Localhost does not work

Hello, MSSQL Server requires the use of server aliases. Use the Cleint Network Utility to create aliases that links a name to a server and a protocol. If PHP is running on another box you can install the Client Tools from the SQL server CD. Copyiing ntwdblib.dll does not give you the complete set of client tools. - Frank > 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.
