mikew2 Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Hi guys, Im having trouble installing phpmyadmin onto my windows 2003 IIS 6 server. I have sucessfully installed php and mysql however when i go to the index.php page on phpmyadmin/index.php i get this error:[quote]phpMyAdmin - ErrorCannot load mysql extension. Please check your PHP configuration. - Documentation[/quote]The documentation includes this:[quote]1.20] I receive the error "cannot load MySQL extension, please check PHP Configuration". To connect to a MySQL server, PHP needs a set of MySQL functions called "MySQL extension". This extension may be part of the PHP distribution (compiled-in), otherwise it needs to be loaded dynamically. Its name is probably mysql.so or php_mysql.dll. phpMyAdmin tried to load the extension but failed. Usually, the problem is solved by installing a software package called "PHP-MySQL" or something similar. [/quote]Ive uncommented the php_mysql.dll however the problem is still the same.If any has any ideas at all as to how to fix this problem it would b much appreciated.Thanks in advanceMichael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
01706 Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 you will need to go to C:\www\phpMyAdmin and make a config.inc file and make it you its writable then go to http://yourserver/phpMyAdmin/scripts/setup.php and change the settings to fit in with your server Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
