phpMyAdmin

[akaballa123]

Hi I am a newbie to MySql database. I recently installed a WAMP 2.0 server to my laptop and used localhost settings to display a website that I am creating. I would like to open the phpMyAdmin to create and modify tables. However, When I try to open phpMyAdmin I receive this message:

phpMyAdmin - Error

Cannot load mysqli extension. Please check your PHP configuration. - Documentation


Would you guys know how to solve this problem?

I installed a wamp 2.0 package from this website:

Thanks!

As it says in the error, check the php.ini being used by the wamp server and make sure its set to load the mysqli extensions. Also you may need to have the libraries available in the extensions dir.

To keep things ordered, I'll link to your post in the mysql forum as the questions are definitely related.

Ignorance is not necessarily Bliss, case in point:
Unknown has caused an Unknown Error on Unknown and must be shutdown to prevent damage to Unknown.

Do this:

1) Click on WAMP icon on your systray
2) Point to PHPSettings
3) Point to PHP Extensions
4) Click on down arrow to scroll through your extension. Make sure that php_mysql and php_mysqli have a right pointing arrow to their left respectively.

Once you do this, you will notice that the WAMP icon on the systray will go red or yellow and then back to white. Once it is white, you can then try opening phpMyAdmin.

Good luck!
