Running Apache 2.2 and PHP 5.2, both are working. (tested with phpinfo().)

I've installed mysql 5.0.27 but can't get it to work. I'm trying to verify its working by loading phpmyadmin 2.9.1.1, and it keeps telling me it can't load the mysql extension.

If I run php.exe, I get the following error:


I've downloaded the php-mysql dlls and put them in the "php\ext" directory and added the location to the PATH variable.

Any thoughts?

yes mysql was started. if you look at the error message, its saying it can't find a file that obviously exists as shown in the file explorer.

But aside from that, php stopped working altogether after I rebooted today. Played with the configs for hours with no luck so I said screw it. Uninstalled everything and downloaded xampp, everything works now.
