Description:
------------
mssql_connect stopped working after we enabled SSL on our SQL server. The only error message we are getting is: 
Warning: mssql_connect(): Unable to connect to: OURSERVER.local in C:\site\DB.php on line 82

A sniffer shows it is able to open a connection to the server, but after a couple of seconds the connection is closed. We are able to connect using SQLCMD.EXE

Reproduce code:
---------------
mssql_connect('OURSERVER.local', 'myuser', 'mypass');

Actual result:
--------------
Warning: mssql_connect(): Unable to connect to: OURSERVER.local in C:\site\DB.php on line 82

An ODBC connection seems to work, which I believe will fix the problem for me.

Have you set the mssql.secure_connection ini option to true?

I am having the same problem.I have 'mssql.secure_connection' enabled but if I 
am not wrong this is irrelevant as the comment in php.ini refers to this with NT 
Authentication. I am using SQL Server authentication.

If I turn 'Force Encryption' off at SQL Server then everything works fine.

My config is as below:
Web Server: Windows 2008, IIS 7, PHP 5.3.10 x64 CGI/FastCGI
DB Server: Windows 2008, SQL Server 2012, Mixed Authentication

I also have an asp.net application in the same environment which runs perfectly 
fine with and without encryption.

IIRC:

We do not support PHP 5.2 anymore. MSSQL extension is not supported anymore either 
on 5.3+. We strongly recommend to move to the SqlSrv extension 
(http://pecl.php.net/sqlsrv) developed by the SqlServer team itself.

I am using PHP 5.3.10 and Microsoft's SQL Driver for PHP version 3.0 with following extensions enabled.

extension=php_curl.dll
extension=php_dblib.dll
extension=php_gd2.dll
extension=php_ldap.dll
extension=php_mbstring.dll
extension=php_mysql.dll
extension=php_openssl.dll
extension=php_pdo.dll
extension=php_pdo_sqlsrv_53_nts_vc9.dll
extension=php_sqlsrv_53_nts_vc9.dll
