I’m an Admin user, and it’s in my Startup folder, so as far as I know it should load at boot. I haven’t yet worked out why this happens. Then it does appear and runs as it normal. If it doesn’t appear in the system tray I just have to start it using the shortcut. I’ve worked around it by putting a shortcut on my desk top. The Apache Services Monitor doesn’t always appear in the system tray when the computer boots, which is irritating. Turned out to be because there was already a MySQL service running for the previous installation, and it’s quite hard to eradicate. I had some trouble getting mySQL to run as a service.
It’s phpMyAdmin that requires (or runs better with) mycrypt, and so I had to copy libmycrypt.dll across to ‘c:\windows’ to get it to load. It all went as expected, and I’ve got MySQL running now.
FREE DOWNLOAD XAMPP 5.4 FOR WINDOWS XP UPDATE
I’ve been running XAMPP for years, and though it’s excellent I want to use something that I can update more readily. ‘mycrypt.dll’ gets a similar error message, but there’s no error for ‘mbstring.dll’, so presumably it was found, which would mean there’s no error in the path.Īny* suggestions, please ? I have wondered about a corrupted PHP download, but if the file name is there, it should be found, surely, even if corrupt ? I’ve tried un-commenting two other extensions (chosen only because they’re un-commented in my laptop installation), ‘mbstring.dll’ and ‘mycrypt.dll’. So why is it not getting found ? I keep looking for a typo, but I’ve not seen one yet. Just to make sure I’ve dragged it across again. The file “php_mysqli.dll” does most certainly exist in that location. The Extensions path in php.ini is defined as : extension_dir = "D:\\SERVER\\PHP\\ext" I was puzzled by the doubled up ‘//’, but this seems to be standard for error messages, and not a concern (correct me if I’m wrong, please). When Apache starts I get the following error message in the Apache ‘error.log’: "PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'D:\\\\SERVER\\\\PHP\\\\ext\\\\php_mysqli.dll' - The specified module could not be found.\\r\ I’ve done it before on my Win7 laptop so I know it’s not all that difficult, but there’s a problem that so far has me puzzled. I’m installing Apache, PHP and MysQL on my WinXP machine.
