ryy705 Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 hello, I have PHP5.3 running on IIS6(finally). But how can I connect to SQL Server? I do not see a reference to php_mssql.dll in php.ini. I don't even see the php_mssql.dll file in the PHP installation folder!! How can I configure PHP to work with SQL server? I am willing to to downgrade to PHP5.2 if neccessary. Please Help.

rhodesa Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 Step 1: http://us.php.net/manual/en/mssql.requirements.php Step 2: In your php install dir, in the ext folder, make sure there is php_mssql.dll Step 3: Enabled it in your php.ini file Step 4: Restart webserver and confirm it's working with a phpinfo() page Edit: Looks like there is more info here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=ccdf728b-1ea0-48a8-a84a-5052214caad9 Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/173119-how-to-configure-sql-server-2000/#findComment-912472 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryy705 Posted September 4, 2009 Author Share Posted September 4, 2009 php_mssql.dll is not in the ext folder. And there is no reference to it in the php.ini file. I made xamp work with SQL SERVER before. Their php.ini did have a reference to it. But that is not the case with the PHP Installation I downloaded from php.net. I will look into the microsoft link you just sent me right now. Thank you for your prompt response.

rhodesa Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 If I remember right...it was just: Step 1: http://us.php.net/manual/en/mssql.requirements.php Step 2: In your php install dir, in the ext folder, make sure there is php_mssql.dll Step 3: Enabled it in your php.ini file Step 4: Restart webserver and confirm it's working with a phpinfo() page but I did it with 5.2, not 5.3 Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/173119-how-to-configure-sql-server-2000/#findComment-912543 Share on other sites More sharing options...
