I used to had my website hosted at a hosting company. But i decided to start my own webserver and in order to get phpBB, MediaWiki, etc. working i need PHP and MySQL. So after a bit of screwing around i could get those working but the MySQL and MySQLi extensions do not seem to work. When i use phpMyAdmin, phpBB, whatever it would say it is not installed correctly. I uncommented it in php.ini, i put my PHP folder in path, still not working. Please note i am not a PHP developer at all.

Using:

  • Windows Server 2003 Small Buisiness (too lazy to install Linux)
  • Apache2 (not sure what version)
  • PHP 5.2 (threaded, manually installed)
  • MySQL 5.5.28

Thanks in advance,

-Sydcul

EDIT: Solved. Don't know how, just used the installer and it worked.
