Just locate the extensions section of the php.ini and add:

extension=php_mysql.dll

Restart the www service(s)

Also confirm you have the extension (dll) in the extensions folder and that it is specified properly in the php.ini as well.

Hi Eric,

Thanks for the reponse. Unfortunately, i am still receiving the same error.

I have now flattened the Test box and reinstalled:
Apache
MySql
PhP

Again all testing up to displaying the config/install page for B2Evo works fine. However, I am unable to get past the PHP.ini file.
Per your suggestion, I can confirm that both the reference in php.ini is present and that php.dll appear in the extenstions folder?

Any other suggestions?

Hi,

I got the same issue. I resolved it by analyzing a little the php5 directories structure and it seems there are may be some changes (at least on Windows) and the php Extensions are in the "ext" folder. Which isn't where I diagnoses it to look for!
Anyhow, my IIS & Php can not acces mysql DLL so:

Here's what I did:

Changed in php.ini, under Dynamic Extensions>

extension=ext/php_mysql.dll

What I changed is I added "ext/"

it was:

extension=php_mysql.dll

hope this help,

regards,

jgi
