FWIW, while I'm using windows xp pro, I just use the WAMP package to run
php, mysql and apache on my machine:
http://www.wampserver.com/en/
All I've done extra is make it run using port 81 so I can also still run IIS
for asp.net stuff.
Stay well

Hi List,
I am new to PHP and as well as with MySQL,
* I have installed PHP 5.28, on win 2K (with IIS) and it is
installed properly I suppose, as when I call phpinfo (), through
a script, it shows the PHP Information.
* then I installed MySQL 5.1.30, and through MySQL command prompt
I am able to do things (creating tables, making queries etc).
* Now I want to use MySQL with PHP, but seems that MySQLI is not
installed properly. as when I write a following script in a php
page I get the error, that 'MySQLi'* *is not installed properly,.
*<?php $si = function_exists ( 'mysqli_connect' ) ;
if ( $si )
{
echo ' MySQLi appears to be installed correctly ' ;
}
else
{
echo 'MySQLi <B> does not </B> appears to be installed. ' ;
}
?>*
I understand that it is a configuration error somewhere, as I am new
here in this world I am unable to figure out what ?
I am attaching the php.ini for the reference.

I did not see an attached file, but the mysqli extension must be activated
in the php.ini file. Search the file and see if you have a line like this:
;extension=php_mysqli.dll
Note the ';' at the beginning. The semicolon makes the line a comment and
php ignores it. You have to remove the comment to activate the extension.
The other thing is the php_mysqli.dll file must be present in the
extension directory for php. To find the extension directory search the
php.ini file extension_dir. In my php.ini the line looks like this:
extension_dir = "c:\php\ext". Make sure the php_mysqli.dll file is in the
directory listed in extension_dir.
Thanks,
James
