Hi, How does one configure PHP support for MySQL on Windows? My host operating system is Windows Server 2003. 1. I have installed Apache 2.2 via the msi installer (apache_2.2.4-win32-x86-no_ssl.msi). 2. I have installed MySQL 5.1 via the windows installer (mysql-5.1.20-bet-win32.zip). 3. I have installed PHP 5 via the msi installer (php-5.2.3-win32-installer.msi) 4. I have enabled the php_mysql.dll extension inside of php.ini 5. I have ensured that libmysql.dll in on the system path. I have done all of this correctly, but I still cannot open a database from php script! What am I doing wrong? Can any one please advise? Please help a PHP/MySQL newbie. Faithfully, Sean B.
