RESOLVED: Yes, the Apache error log says: PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library './php_pdo.dll' - The specified module could not be found.\r\n in Unknown on line 0 It says this for all the PDO extensions, but they are all in the C:\<php home>\ext directory. However, that led me to think they may need to be in a different directory as well. Sure enough, I copied the PDO .dll files into the C:\WINDOWS\System directory (On XP), restarted the apache server. The error went away and I can now access my database. Thanks for the suggestion. Sometimes it is as simple as something like that that points you in the right direction.

I'm using the Zend Framework and specifically the PDO extension for MySQL. I have the following lines uncommented in my php.ini file (using Windows): extension=php_pdo.dll extension=php_pdo_mysql.dll I have the php_pdo.dll and php_pdo_mysql.dll files in the C:/<phpHome>/ext directory. I've been using both PHP and MySQL for several years, so I don't think it is an installation problem with either of those, but instead specifically with this extension. I ran a script to see what extensions are loaded and this one (PDO) does not show up. I also get the error, "The PDO extension is required for this adapter but the extension is not loaded" everytime I try to run any code using PDO. And yes, I have restarted the Apache server several times. I can't for the life of me figure out why this extension won't load. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
