hello

i installed PHP 5.2.3 today ony my server (windows 2003 IIS6) and was going to install PHPBB but got halted at this text (The PHP configuration on your server doesn't support the database type that you chose) when trying to install it with MYSQL4.x/5.x setting, i wonder what i have missed in the install...

what have i done so far?

1:in my windows variable setting, i have already added my c:\php to the windows path variable
2: the file php_mysql.dll is enabled as an extension in my php.ini already and i moved the dll into c:\windows\system32 along with php.ini
3: my extension dir is set to c:\php\ext in php.ini
5: I have confirmed that the mysql server is insteed running, and it is.
6: i restarted the server after installing php and changing the php.ini and moving the files etc.

here is my php.ini file and my phpinfo
 
mysql extension is not being loaded by php. ensure that the php binaries directory is in the environment path for windows.

as a kuldge you could also copy the mysql php libraries into the c:\win\system32 directory
 
hey jpadie, this is gow my nvironment path for windows. looks like

System Variables
Variable: Path
Value: C:\Perl\bin\;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:\php;

and just incase i copyed all the files in c:\php\ext into system32 and rebooted without change.
 
it looks to be working to me now.

your phpinfo() shows that the mysql extensions have loaded properly.
 
Ye i found out what is was. i hadent copyed mysqllib.dll from the main php folder into the system32 folder, thankf anyhow for the help jpadie! :D
