IIS7 and Php -vista Ultimate

[ferronrsmith]

Can you look in \windows\system32\inetsrv\applicationHost.config and see what you have configured in the <handlers> section?

This solution works for me: http://blondr.blogspot.com/2006/11/s...and-php-5.html

I am going to test mysql now

[Utech22]

[Database > Mysql connection]

When I add the database to dreamweaver8 and try to test it I get:

Your PHP server doesnt have the MySQL module loaded or you can't use the mysql_(p) connect funtions.

Any Help?

Here is the test db file

<?php
echo "Hello world!";

//db connection and authentication
require ('Connections\dbtest.php');
$dbtest = mysql_pconnect($hostname_dbtest, $username_dbtest, $password_dbtest) or trigger_error(mysql_error(),E_USER_ERROR); 
//select db
mysql_select_db ($database_dbtest);
//query
$result = mysql_query('select * from test') or die
(mysql_error());
//display data
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array ($result))
{
             echo $row['id'];
    echo "<br>";
    echo $row['name'];
    echo "<br>";
    echo $row['age'];
    echo "<br>";
}
mysql_free_result($result);
?>

Here's how mine is set up.

In the WinNT/Windows folder, I have the following files:
libmysql.dll
libmysqli.dll
php_mysql.dll
php_mysqli.dll
php.ini

At the top of the file called httpd.conf (in the /Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/conf folder), I have the following:

PHPIniDir "C:/winnt" or "C:\Windows"
LoadModule php5_module "c:/php/php5apache2.dll"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml .html

Make sure the following lines are appropriately edited in the same file:
ServerRoot "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2"
ServerAdmin your_email_address@domainname.com
ServerName your_computer_name:80
DocumentRoot "C:/folder" <-- Mine is called phpwebs, but you can call it whatever you want -- it's where you keep your site files
<Directory "C:/folder">

Everything else in the httpd.conf file can remain the defaults. The php.ini file needs to be changed as follows:
doc_root = C:\folder <-- Note that the slash is NOT a backslash
extension_dir = "c:\php\ext" <-- Note that I've just changed the foldername of where the PHP files are located. That's because I like short folder names because they take less time to type.

Make sure you've removed the semicolons from in front of the following lines under Windows Extensions in your php.ini file:
extension=php_mysqli.dll
extension=php_mysql.dll

And if those lines don't exist, put them in.

Everything else can be left as the default.

I am using IIS7
I tried xamp, wamp, and it I was not getting it, even apache server,
so I'll stick to what I am used to;

I have done that.....
I saw from a search I made that they put the require .dll
libmysql.dll
libmysqli.dll
php_mysql.dll
php_mysqli.dll
php.ini
in the c:\windows\syatem32 folder (which I did)

It is now working, Thank you ferronrsmith
