Having your extensions dir in your path is less important than having your php.ini file set up properly. Take a look for this section: ; Directory in which the loadable extensions (modules) reside. extension_dir = "C:\php\extensions" This happens to be where my extensions are kept on my machine... and that dir isn't in the PATH. I don't even having C:\php in my PATH and I can run scripts and phpMyAdmin just fine. I'm not sure about question #2 - I just set up phpMyAdmin step-by-step and it worked fine. It's just been a long time since I set it up. -M > -----Original Message----- > From: kutuu [mailto:kutuu@xxxxxxxxxx] > Sent: Saturday, November 27, 2004 2:47 AM > To: php-windows@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: Cannot load mysqli extension error or login prompt > > > Hello everybody, > > Question1. > > I have my "c:/program files/php/extensions/" directory in my path. > And the required php_mysqli.dll & libmysqli.dll files in it. > > But I cant get phpmyadmin to load properly. > > It gives me this error: > > cannot load mysqli extension, > please check PHP Configuration > Documentation > > ----- > > Question2. > > If I revert to the regular libmysql.dll & php_mysql.dll files > then I keep getting my login prompt over & over again. > > I have read that I need to set some control user but how am I > going to do that since I cant use phpmyadmin to do it? > > Anyone who knows what I am talking about please help me as I > have been working on this problem for some time now and It > simply does not work. > > Gün. > > The following code does not work too..
