MySql support in PHP 5.x

[nospam@pacbell.net]

According to documentation on PHP site, MySql support is not built in to
the v. 5.x Windows binaries posted on the site. Does anyone know where
to get PHP 5.x Windows binaries with MySql support turned on? I'd rather
not have to rebuild the product.

Thanks,

David

I suggest using the dll. Its much easier than trying to recompile from
src on windows :)

Don't forget to set the extension path. The easiest way is to just copy
the dlls in the /ext/ folder into the php root folder.

You are going to also need the msvcr71.dll if you plan on using PHP5
and MySql 5. If you are installing on a Windows machine.
Download MySql and install it.
Download PHP and get that working with your web server.
Once thats done, download the MySql Extension for PHP from the Mysql
Site.
Also download the msvcr71.dll file from someplace. (Google it.)
Place the all 3 dll files into your system32 folder or in a place
located on your path.

That should do it. It sounds like more than it is.
Good Luck!
