Ok so i'm not so sure this question belongs here but i'm having a hell of a time with it...
I'm trying to setup a new webserver using MS SQL(Which i hate!!!)
IIS 5, and PHP5.. now i have php installed and IIS 5 working and MS SQL working. My problem is that php5 won't use the mssql functions.. when i run this function in my browser it tells me the functions are not available:
Code:
<?php
if (function_exists('mssql_fetch_row')) {
echo "MSSQL functions are available.<br />\n";
} else {
echo "MSSQL functions are not available.<br />\n";
}
?>
I've uncommented the php_mssql.dll file in the ini and I have the client tools installed on the same pc..
the evironment variables are set correctly..
does ANYONE know of ANYTHING else that could be causing this?
Believe me if i could i would load up MYSQL in a heartbeat but i'm being forced to use MSSQL for work related reasons.
thanks in advance everyone...
ps. I've searched EVERYWHERE for a solution to this and cannot find one.
