[SOLVED] Apache - php_mysql.dll extension won't load

[lpglycerine]

I'm trying to use mysql_connect() and I realized that I can't get php_mysql.dll to load correctly. I've followed all the recommended steps to install extensions...any help please?

 

-------------

Apache 2.2.9

PHP 5.2.6

 

I modified php.ini and removed the semicolon before php_mysql.dll. I am positive I'm modifying the correct php.ini file on the system (i realize some people have problems modifying the wrong one).

 

When restarting the server the error log shows...

 

....

PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'C:\\PHP\\ext\\php_mysql.dll' - The specified procedure could not be found.\r\n in Unknown on line 0

php_mysql.dll is located in the c:/php/ext and c:/windows/ folders, and I've deleted every other instance of it on the computer.

libmysql.dll is located in the c:/php/ and c:/windows/ folders, it was also deleted everywhere else on the computer.

i've restarted the server numerous times...

 

does anyone know if the php_mysql.dll extension works with the latest versions of php and apache? these were both installed from the latest versions found on the websites just a couple days ago, as was mysql... thanks for any help

solution was strange, had to copy libmysql.dll into the apache 2.2 folder...
