Description:
------------
I had installed the windows binaries php-4.3.6-Win32.zip, and the PEAR DB package worked fine. After installing the binaries php-5.0.0-Win32.zip, I got the error "DB Error: extension not found".

Remarks: 
(1) Copying the file php_mysql.dll into the directory C:\WINDOWS\systm32 does not help.
(2) Even if it did, there would be a bug.

Remark (3): commenting in the line "extension=php_mysql.dll"
in php.ini does not help either

After the installation on WindowsXP/IIS of PHP 5.0.0 (stable) in c:\PHP\ and configuring the php.ini with:

extension_dir = "c:\PHP\ext"

I receive the following message:

"PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'c:\PHP\ext\php_EXTENSIONNAME.dll' - The specified module could not be found"

for all extensions except:

php_bz2.dll
php_cpdf.dll
php_curl.dll
php_dba.dll
php_dbase.dll
php_dbx.dll
php_filepro.dll
php_gd2.dll
php_gettext.dll
php_imap.dll
php_ldap.dll
php_mbstring.dll
php_mime_magic.dll
php_ming.dll
php_mysqli.dll
php_openssl.dll
php_oracle.dll
php_pgsql.dll
php_shmop.dll
php_snmp.dll
php_sockets.dll
php_tidy.dll
php_xmlrpc.dll
php_xsl.dll

All the other extensions result in the error above (of course, some of them cannot be loaded because of 3rd-parties dll missing like with oci8 but what about php_mysql.dll, php_mysqli.dll, ...)

I solved the problem by copying the file "libmysql.dll" from the php5 root to the win/system32 library - I have no idea why this works but stumpled upon the suggestion on a website!

Either add c:\php to your system path, or copy all dlls from that folder to system32.
