Can’t get MySQL to work with PHP in IIS on W2K or XP pro.

[yacaph]

I'm new to this site so I hope that I'm in the correct forum. I'd really appreciate some help,

 

The info here is from the XP machine but it’s similar on the W2k box. MySQL works fine as does IIS & PHP although if I move php.ini to the Windows (or WINNT) folder I only get a blank screen when executing a .php file and this includes excuting phpinfo(). I have restarted IIS after each change. On the W2K box I copied the .dll’s from C:\PHP\ext to WINNT\System32, but not on the XP box.

 

Installs = IIS 5.1 – MySQL 5.0 – PHP 5.25 on both computers.

 

Php.ini is in C:\PHP\ (although phpinfo() shows it in C:\WINDOWS\ and in C:\WINNT\ on the W2K box).

 

Path on XP= C:\PHP\;C:\PHP\ext\;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\Symantec\pcAnywhere\;;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\;

 

Path on W2K= C:\Program Files\PHP\:\WINNT\system32;C:\WINNT;C:\WINNT\system32\WBEM;C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin

 

The following are some of the uncommented items from my php.ini on the XP box.

 

doc_root =

user_dir =

extension_dir ="C:\PHP\ext"

enable_dl = On

cgi.force_redirect = 1

fastcgi.impersonate = 1;

file_uploads = On

 

[MySQL]

mysql.allow_persistent = On

mysql.max_persistent = -1

mysql.max_links = -1

mysql.default_port =

mysql.default_socket =

mysql.default_host =

mysql.default_user =

mysql.default_password =

mysql.connect_timeout = 60

mysql.trace_mode = Off

 

[MySQLi]

mysqli.max_links = -1

mysqli.default_port = 3306

mysqli.default_socket =

mysqli.default_host =

mysqli.default_user =

mysqli.default_pw =

mysqli.reconnect = Off

[mSQL]

msql.allow_persistent = On

msql.max_persistent = -1

msql.max_links = -1

 

[php_MYSQL]

extension=php_mysql.dll

[php_PHPDOC]

extension=php_phpdoc.dll

[php_POP3]

extension=php_pop3.dll

[php_SPL_TYPES]

extension=php_spl_types.dll

Well if you would like to go over to using Apache then maybe I can get you up and running  ???
