Please [url=http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php/topic,95378.0.html]read this[/url]. That thread will walk you through enabling the mysql extension. That is why you are getting the error message from phpMyAdmin.

Hi I am also getting the same eror.

Bellow is settings in php.ini file:

[font=Courier]extension_dir = "C:\php\ext"[/font]
<hr>
[font=Courier];extension=php_mssql.dll[/font]
[font=Courier];extension=php_msql.dll
[font=Courier]extension=php_mysql.dll
[font=Courier];extension=php_mysqli.dll
[font=Courier];extension=php_oci8.dll
<hr>


my libmysql.dll and php_mysql.dll are both in C:\php\ext.

I have tried all possible ways and i have researched all possible sites but no good.

Also i have another problem.

My Internet Explorer used to keep refreshing my Phpmyadmin page when i used to click on the db structure for any table and eventually it used to end in a page not found error.

Can somebody plz help me on this.

libmysql.dll should not be in C:\php\ext but within your windows folder (C:\WINDOWs). When you move that file restart your server.
