    PDO on windows

    Much to my surprise PDO does not come with php 5.2.6 on windows.

    I can't seem to find out much about how to install PDO and the mysql
    driver for IIS and windows. I haven't given up googling, but...

    Any resources on this? I have a client that I'll need to talk through
    this. Hard to do when you are clueless yourself!

    Using PHP 5.2.4 for Windows here for development, it includes the PDO
    classes. Enabling them was just a matter of ucommenting the
    appropriate lines in the php.ini file (and I think I had to uncomment
    some other stuff related to database drivers too, but it's been a
    while since I did it do I don't remember).

      Thanks. Do you have to restart the server afterwards?

        Yes, any changes to php.ini will require a server restart. At least on
        Apache they do, I would imagine the same is true of IIS.
