I have installed Microsoft driver SQLSrv 3.0, installed it, gave the path to php extentions folder. Changed the Php.ini file to include the code
extensions=php_sqlsrv_53_nts_vc9.dll
But when i tried to check whether the drivers loaded by the phpinfo method, The info page doesnot include Sqlsrv section.
It means drivers are not loaded. What can be the possible error . Any body help
Any time new extensions are activated, you need to restart the server. here’s the instructions from microsoft’s website
Instructions Perform the following steps to download and install the Microsoft Drivers for PHP for SQL Server: 1. Download SQLSRV30.EXE to a temporary directory 2. Run SQLSRV30.EXE 3. When prompted, enter the path to the PHP extensions directory 4. After extracting the files, read the Installation section of the SQLSRV30_Readme.htm file for next steps
