Description:
------------
My scripts that depend on sqlite don't work work anymore because pdo_sqlite extension does not load.  It works for 7.3.12, but not 7.4.0.


Test script:
---------------
$dbhnd = new PDO("sqlite:". $database);

Expected result:
----------------
I expect that if I replace php 7.3.12 with 7.4.0 AND there's no mention of removing sqlite extension from PHP core, that php scripts that depend on the sqlite extension to work.

All other extensions ("gd", "mbstring", "exif", "xsl") load just fine.  pdo_sqlite does not.



Actual result:
--------------
For example, one error message is

PDOException: could not find driver in D:\xxx\x.php:110 Stack trace: #0 D:\xxx\x.php(110): PDO->__construct('sqlite:lkp/lkpM...') #1 D:\yyy\y.php(65): include('D:\\Data\\xxx\\i...') #2 {main}

Another

PDOException: could not find driver in D:\xxx\x.php:42 Stack trace: #0 D:\Data\xxx\x.php(42): PDO->__construct('sqlite:lkp/lkpM...') #1 {main}

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

How much troubleshooting have you done? Any errors?

And are you using libsqlite >= 3.5.0 as stated in the documentation?

How much troubleshooting have you done? 
As much as I can do.  That's why I wrote this bug report.

Any errors?
Yes, as shown in Actual result.

And are you using libsqlite >= 3.5.0 as stated in the documentation?
I don't know.  How does one check?  It doesn't show up in phpinfo.  Should it? 

The sentence "As of PHP 7.4.0 » libsqlite ≥ 3.5.0 is required." in the documentation is not helpful to me.  The link goes to the sqlite website, but there is no "libsqlite" file that I can find.  Does "libsqlite" refer to "libsqlite3.dll" that comes with the php-7.4.0-Win32-vc15-x86.zip?  If it does, can the documentation be improved for those of us who are not professional programmers?
 [2019-12-16 00:41 UTC] silverwoodchuck47 at yahoo dot com 
I finally figured it out.  

Copy libsqlite3.dll that comes with php (in my case, php-7.4.0-Win32-vc15-x86.zip) to somewhere in the Windows path (in my case, I chose c:\windows\).  Then restart the web server.  Go to phpinfo.php: that shows the PDO drivers: sqlite and SQLite Library 3.30.1.

So this is not a bug, but a change in how to install PHP that is not documented in https://www.php.net/manual/en/migration74.windows-support.php.

Please close this bug report.

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.

tip for windows, the path variable must be accessible to the process running the webserver, running apache as a service means putting it in user path wont work, needs to be in system path.

hopefully this saves you the 3 days it took me to figure that out. :(
