"Can't load MySQL extension" error when installing PHP5 under IIS6

Asked by bheroniphr in PHP for Windows, PHP Installation, PHP and Databases

Hi,

I'm just installing my second instance of PHP5 under IIS6 and have hit a snag that's really baffling me. When I try to connect to phpMyAdmin I get this error:

"Can't load MySQL extension"

I've installed:

IIS6 on WinXP Pro
MySQL 4.1
MANUALLY installed PHP5
phpMyAdmin

I've manually dumped PHP5 folder in c:\php and configured php.ini to un-REM php_mysql.dll and checked the path for extension_dir is pointing to "c:\php\ext"

I've registered php5isapi.dll in IIS for ALL VERBS.

I've added c:\php to my SYSTEM PATH

As far as I know these are all the things I need to do but it still doesn't work. I know this is a prob with PHP rather than MySQL but just can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Any ideas?
