I have been striggling to set up the following scenario:

  • Apache 2 (64bit) running on Windows 7 (64bit)
  • PHP (64bit)
  • MS SQL Express 2008 as (local)

I have managed to install and configure both Apache and PHP, installed SQL Server 2008 Driver for PHP 2.0. I have amended my php.ini to include the appropriate php_pdo_sqlsrv_53_ts_vc9.dll but when start my server I keep getting "php_pdo_sqlsrv_53_ts_vc9.dll - %1 is not a valid Win32 application" message in the error log.

I am confused. I can't really make sense of the error message in this case. All components are 64bit now... Is it possible that the dll is 32?

Thanks for your help

Looks like a 32bit vs. 64bit issue. I switched from WAMP 64 to WAMP 32 and am able to connect now.
