RE: Can't Get PHP to work

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Morning,

Check the extension path in the php.ini file in your c:\winnt directory.
I can remember that I had to change that when setting up php5 because the
directory was c:\php\extension and the path in the php.ini was c:\php\ext.

Subject:  Can't Get PHP to work


Hi,

I sure hope someone here can help me.  I spent the entire day yesterday
and most of the evening setting up a webserver on my Windows 2000 Pro
system. 

I've got PHP 5.04, MySQL 4.1.12, ActivePerl 5.8.6, Java Runtime
Environment, Tomcat 5.5.9, ZendOptimizer 2.5.10, MyODBC 3.5.11 and
phpMyAdmin 2.6.2 all installed.

 From what I can tell, all is working well except PHP and phpMyAdmin.

I added PHP to my path like this:

C:\Perl\bin\;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:
\php;C:\Apache2\bin;C:\mysql\bin;C:\php\dlls;C:\Program
Files\Common Files\Ulead Systems\MPEG;"C:\Program Files\Zone
Labs\ZoneAlarm\MailFrontier"

I've got a copy of php.ini in both my c:/php directory and in
c://winnt.  I've listed my user directory as c:/apache/apache2/htdocs
and I've placed phpmyadmin in htdocs.

But when I try to view a php page I get an error or page cannot be
displayed.  On a couple of occassions I viewed the raw php data in my
browser.

Also, when I try to add a php extension using "LoadModule" in my
httd.conf file I get an error loading Apache telling me that "the file
cannot be found" (but I've verified it exists - like php5apache.dll and
php5ts.dll).

Can someone please help me figure out where I'm screwing up at?

Thanks in advance!

Edited to say I'm getting Closer!!!

Now when I go to
[url=http://localhost/phpmyadmin]http://localhost/phpmyadmin[/url] I get
the following info:

cannot load mysqli extension;
please check PHP configuration
[u]Documentation[/u]

And the documentation says:
[b][1.20] I receive the error "cannot load MySQL extension, please check
PHP Configuration". [/b]To connect to a MySQL server, PHP needs a set of
MySQL functions called "MySQL extension". This extension may be part of
the PHP distribution (compiled-in), otherwise it needs to be loaded
dynamically. Its name is probably mysql.so or php_mysql.dll. phpMyAdmin
tried to load the extension but failed.

Usually, the problem is solved by installing a software package called
"PHP-MySQL" or something similar.

I have tried using both mysql and mysqli in config.inc.php (phpmyadmin
config file) and either way I get the same error message.  And in
php.ini I have enabled the following extensions:

extension=php_mysql.dll
extension=php_mysqli.dll
