Still not working properly.

 

I have:

In the php.ini-recommended file

changed extension_dir = "C:\php\ext"

uncommented extension=php_mysql.dll, extension=php_mysql.dll

 

I also deleted all instances of libmysql.dll except the one in c:\PHP and then copy and pasted the one from the php folder and placed it into C:\Windows\System32

 

And i'm still getting the same errors.

 

I've also been searching the web about this issue and i found alot of cases with this issue. Has there been any more updates for this problem?

Do you mean that is what is shown when view your php folder in Windows Explorer? If so you have not correctly renamed the php.ini.

 

Open the php.ini-recommended into notepad.

Then go to File > Save As.. and type the following into the file name box: "C:\php\php.ini" (including the quotes). After click save. A php.ini file should be created in your PHP installation folder. Use this new file to configure PHP.

 

I would recommend you to change a system setting which stop Windows from removing the file-extensions from file names. To do so open any Folder and go to Tools > Folder Options > View. Now Scroll down the list of Settings and uncheck the setting labelled "Hide extensions from known file types". Click Ok.

 

Windows should now show files extensions along side filenames, eg filename.ext rather than just filename
