Im running a windows 2003 server & i've installed Mysql & but the connector to the php but this is where i'm lost. I have a screen up saying im missing the MySQL, GD, cURL & OpenSSL php extensions. I have no idea how to do this :S

If anyone could provide me good step by step instructions on this I would greatly appreciate it.

Ok i have managed to install the extensions but their still not being detected. Their located in C:\Program Files\PHP\ext

I have added this in the php.ini file & remove the ; infront of all the extensions but it still isn't picking them up. Any suggestions? I need to have this working today :S

Did you try the installation guide on the php site?

google

windows 2003 php installation

first link gives

http://uk.php.net/install.windows

I took a look at it but most of it went over my head tbh :S I normally use servers already setup, never had to worry about setting on up myself.

If you would be willing to take a look for me I can send you a pm with the RDC (Remote desktop connections) information.

I followed a tutorial that said put a copy of the extensions into the C:\WINDOWS\System32\inetserv\ directory I've done this & restarted the server & now all im getting is Service Unavaliable :S

[mclarke1987]

no edit button again :S

Changed the php.ini file to point to that directory again & its no-longer a service unavaliable error but still not tied to the extension.

If anyone is willing to take a look in RDC i'd really apprecate the help.

If you have removed the comment from in front of the mysql extension so that it reads

extension=php_mysql.dll

You must also make sure that you have enabled the pointer to the PHP extensions, buy changing the following statement:

extension_dir = "c:\php\ext"

or where ever you have your PHP program files

After you save the php.ini file you must restart the server for these changes to take effect.

Hope that helps!

Sorry I forgot to update the thread, I resolved the issue, because PHP was running in Program Files php5 kicks up a fuss so I had to reinstall to the C:\PHP directory & it fixed the issue. Im having other issues now so if you have any ideas check out the thread calls NoActionError on install (but its a different error now)
