Xampp error

You must have the php_mssql library for Apache installed and enabled to connect to an MSSQL database. Uncomment the line that says extension=php_mssql.dll in your php.ini (XAMPP/WAMP only). This requires a restart of the Apache service to take effect.


i've seen all the threads through, but still error message. can someone please help me?

It is because you are using XAMPP that has PHP version 5.3+, but in PHP 5.3+ php_mssql.dll is no longer supported, you must use sqlsrv extension.

However, you'll need to modify your code for that.

But, for example if you want to use php_mssql.dll, you just need XAMPP with older version of PHP.

For example, I am using XAMPP 1.6.5 that has PHP 5.25 built in itself.

Everything should work fine after you install it. Maybe if you get same error on 1.6.5 version, search in "C:/XAMPP/php/php.ini" for "extension=php_mssql.dll" and remove semi-colon (";") in front of it if it has it.

Hope I helped ya.

Good luck.

thank you, its working fine :)

You're welcome, have fun :D
