Getting PHP5 to figure with mySQL
Unfortunately, PHP5 removed constitutional support for mySQL. Therefore, you´ll have to be compelled to copy some files by hand. Open the folder you unzipped your PHP to. Copy thelibmysql.dll file (should be settled like c:php5libmysql.dll ) into your Window´s System folder (usually C:WindowsSystem32 though could be c:WinNTSystem or something).
Then open up your php.ini in a very text editor and search for;extension=php_mysql.dll and take away the; ahead of that line.
Do a similar for ;extension=php_mbstring.dll while not the mbstring extension phpMyAdmin is unable to separate strings properly, and it should end in surprising results.
Restart Apache and see if you get any errors. If it complains aboutphp_ mysql.dll. Either your extension directory isn´t correct or windows can´t notice libmysql.dll
If you don´t need to maneuver files outside your php5 directory, you will conjointly add the php5 directory to the trail on Windows. Please browse through the subsequent article in a way to try this.
Examining MySQL is not exactly easy. But the usual connection strings for PHP and CGI are grouped together. I will suggest downloading the phpMyAdmin and oppress it to make and supervise your databases and more.
