unable to load dynamic library C:\php\ext\php_mysql.dll - procedure
|
|
|

If you get the above error when trying to install/run PHP5 using Apache
and Windows XP, I just thought i would let you know my experience. It
took me many hours to figure this out, but it was not a problem with the
php_mysql.dll file at all.
It turns out I had an incompatible libmysql.dll file in my
C:\windows\system32 folder. So, to make it work, i had to copy the
libmysql.dll file given in the PHP distribution into C:\windows\system32.
Well, just wanted to let you know my experience, hopefully this can help
some one.

I changed my path. Unfortunately, it kept picking up the libmysql.dll
from C:\mysql\bin, even though C:\php is first in my path.

| Whatismore mySQL won't run if you don't copy this file 'libmysql.dll' bundled with PHP5 into your system32 directory. I understood this because I had *no* 'libmysql.dll' on this path.

| Ok - got it!!
Actually mysql and PHP were running fine after I changed the extension_dir to the correct directory.
The Problem after that was w/ phpMyAdmin and it's configuration.
Here's what I did to fix that:
code:
'host' from localhost to the machine host name 'extension' to 'mysqli' 'user' to a user who has access to MySQL, i.e. can log onto MySQL on the server 'password' to the password of the user

Thank you so so very much lol, I was pulling my hair out on this one until I rewad your post. My current libmysql.dll was only 224k big, and the one I use that fixed the problem is now 1436 k big lol huge difference. |
