IIS/PHP/PHPMyAdmin Woes

Post by Charles256 »

The problem:
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'C:\php5\php_mysql.dll' - The specified procedure could not be found. in Unknown on line 0
The possible solutions: make sure that file exists in that folder- check.
make sure that file is in system32- check
make surephp5ts.dll is in system32-check.
make sure both files mentioned above are in the windows folder-check
make sure the line is uncommented in php.ini-check
restart the server-check check check check
restart your computer-check check check.

the real solution? I have no freaking idea. Been trying to get IIS/MySQL/PHP all working in harmony but I think they hate eachother..help? Yes, I've googled it to death....no help..atl all...I call on you, my fellow forumites! please! :-D

Check that the webserver user has permission to that folder.

hum..descent suggestion..however....seeing as with Apache I never had to do anything like I have no idea how to see if I have permission to that folder....google terms to figure out how to do that? And yes, I have to use IIS. Right now I'm testing locally but once I get this figured out I gotta install it on the company server. I added a new virtual user with access to that file, then edited the user to be the same as my default user..still no dice.

Actually, I just checked on my IIS server, and did not have my permissions set to include the webserver user. So, not sure.
