PHP 5 php_mysql.dll problem width mysql 4.x & 5.0 libmysql.dll

Hi everyone,

In short: it seems that php_mysql.dll (php 5) does not work with new versions (4.x and 5.x) of libmysql.dll

At least Visual Studio DLL dependency walker shows that in '5.0.0b4 win32 zip binary' the php_mysql.dll extension supports mysql_create_db() and mysql_drop_db() functions as do the mySQL 3.x client libraries. Fine.
But these 2 functions are dropped in versions 4.x and 5.x of libmySQL.dll. So trying to use newer mysql client libraries with php5 (as suggested) results an error.

I already made a request for php.net to include both php_mysql3.dll and php_mysql45.dll in the package. But it's sure easy to self-recompile the php_mysql.dll without these 2 functions. I'm not much of a compiler-man myself. Has anybody done that already?

Please share the php_mysql.dll (4.x and 5.x) with everybody!!!

thanks in advance

Additional information:

Default manual install and conf of PHP5 and MySQL5 on W2K, IIS. Everything worked fine.
As I needed MySQL new features (multiple recordsets), I followed the suggestions of both php.net and mysql.com and replaced my client library libmysql.dll in /system32 with mysql.com provided one (version 5).
After restarting web server, get the following error at first php-file request:
PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'c:phpextphp_mysql.dll' - The specified procedure could not be found.' I also tried 4.0 and 4.1 - the same bucket.

i copied libmysql.dll into /windows directory. It works

It works very good for my proble.... thanx!

DUDE! YOU RULE< THAT TOTALLY WORKED!!!!!

I had the same problem.

And you solved it!!

Thanks a lot!!

This works thanks man you rule.

If copying to /windows doesen't work try copying to /windows/system and windows/system32.

Worked for me

I too have to say:
YOU ROCK! works here as well! :-)

*happy*

Well done. This also solved my problem. (just thought I'd add tot he long line of thankful coders)

Am I missing something? Where is the php_mysql4.dll? I need it, I have the exact same problem.

nm, I googled around. I had to use the libMySQL included with PHP (I didn't see it) instead of the one included with MySQL...

Wholly COW !!!!! I can't Believe I actually have found someone on the net that knows something about PHP This fix worked..... THank you Thank You Thank You

Unable to load dynamic library 'c:phpextphp_mysql.dll' - The specified procedure could not be found also get this error

i don't know if i am having the same problem as everyone else but i definitely have some problem with mysql and php 5. i get this error when run apahe:

The procedure entry point mysql_drop_db could not be located in the dll libmysql.dll

then i get:

PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'c:phpextphp_mysql.dll' - The specified procedure could not be found.


i copied the libmysql.dll file to windows, windows/system32 and windows/system and i still can't get it to work. i was wondering which libmysql.dll i had to copy, if it was the one from the debug folder or the one from the opt folder?

i uncommented ;extension=php_mysql.dll in php.ini and i didn't get those error when apache was run but i still get mysql errors like when i try to run phpmyadmin (which is properly configured):

Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_get_client_info() in c:program filesapache groupApachehtdocsphpmyadminlibrariesdefines.lib.ph p on line 47
