Hi.

I know that MySql is not supported and not in the package.

But I tried to install this manually, and I can not get it to work.

I loged into the adminsite, and looked in the phpinfo to where the php.ini file was located.

c:\www\TechPlat\apache\bin\php.ini

I removed the comment in the extensions section to load php_mysqli.dll, and saved the php.ini and restarted Apache.

But when I look into phpinfo there is nothing mentioned about MySql, and I still can not connect.

?????????

Ok I know that I am altering the right PHP.ini file, because I changed some other settings and restarted Apache, and the phpinfo displayed these changes.

So WHY can't I get MySQL to work, it just ignores the extensions ???

Got the answer this evening from Nusphere support.

If you have a similar problem then please copy these dll's

> libmysql.dll
> fdftk.dll
> fribidi.dll
> gds32.dll
> libmcrypt.dll
> libmhash.dll
> libswish-e.dll
> msql.dll
> ntwdblib.dll
> yaz.dll

From the php directory into the apache/bin directory

This is an Techplatform installaer issue with version 5.
I take it will be corrected, but if you find the same problem then follow the above solution.

I have similar problem. I copy above mentioned dlls and php_mysqli.dll loaded without questions. But I can’t load php_mysql.dll!!!!

I had the problem as well and I finally figured it out. The php.ini file that is used is the one in the directory:

C:\Program\nusphere\TechPlat\apache\bin

Edit that one - and DO NOT EDIT the one which is in the TechPlat\apache\php-directory.

did you actually get it working with phpmyadmin?

why wouldn't it work with phpmyadmin at all?!
it has always been working
