Hello I think it can be for the same reason that phpldapadmin and phppgadmin does not work. Unfortunately I do not see in the httpd.conf file the line you mention (PHPIniDir) Thanks MCQ -----Message d'origine----- De : Cameron Childress [mailto:cameronc@xxxxxxxxx] Envoyé : dimanche 11 décembre 2011 18:10 À : php-windows@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Objet : Re: Your PHP installation appears to be missing the MySQL extension which is required by WordPress. Looks like I resolved my own problem. I'd manually configured Apache's httpd.conf file and misspelled the PHPIniDir. Oddly, PHP didn't complain and Apache started without error, even with the misconfiguration. Working now. Thanks. -Cameron On Sun, Dec 11, 2011 at 10:10 AM, Cameron Childress <cameronc@xxxxxxxxx>wrote: > Lobbing what I hope is a totally easy softball question here.
