cm0226 Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 New to development, mysql, php.... I am self teaching form a book that says I need to install a connector for php/mysql. I've downladed the latest versions of both but cant find the .dll files that the book mentions to download. Any pointers?

PFMaBiSmAd Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 On Windows, the php .zip package includes all the necessary files that php needs to use mysql. Short version - All you need to do is install and configure the Apache .msi package, add the php .zip package, install the mysql .msi package, and enable the mysql extension in php. You could also just use one of the all in one packages - http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/156731-php-mysql/#findComment-825311 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maq Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 The easiest way to install the necessary components would be to use a pre-packaged one, such as - WAMP. This is assuming you're using Apache.
