I am installing a configuration with WampServer 2.4:
- Windows 7 64-bit sp1
- WampServer 2.4 64-bit
- PHP 5.4.3 64-bit (came with the WampServer)
- Apache 2.4.4
- Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Native Client 64-bit
- Microsoft SQLSRV 3.0 (php_sqlsrv_54_ts.dll, php_pdo_sqlsrv_54_ts.dll and they are put in c:/wamp/bin/php/php5.4.3/ext/
And I edited the C:\wamp\bin\apache\Apache2.4.4\bin\php.ini with the lines:
- extension_dir = "c:/wamp/bin/php/php5.4.3/ext/"
- extension=php_sqlsrv_54_ts.dll
- extension=php_pdo_sqlsrv_54_ts.dll
And I restarted all the services from Wamp.
But I still couldn't see the SQLSRV section from phpinfo -- and of course my connection test program failed.
What might have gone wrong?
Can anyone help?
Your issue is because you are using (or WAMP has given you) 64bit php, where as your sqlsrv driver is most likely 32bit.
Your solution is to switch to a 32bit version of php (The benefits of running in 64, are pretty much non existent anyway unless you need larger data types), or to recompile the sqlsrv driver in 64bit (Likely more trouble than it is worth).
Try a WAMP 32 bit version. http://www.wampserver.com/en/#wampserver-32-bits-php-5-4
Also if Apache and my-sql are of no consequence to you (they are just a web sever and and an sql database) you can install a WISP PHP Stack in a breeze using the web platform installer. http://www.microsoft.com/web/downloads/platform.aspx
For those of you using a 64bit version of PHP, the unofficial dll files linked below will work:
http://robsphp.blogspot.co.uk/2012/06/unofficial-microsoft-sql-server-driver.html
I am using 64bit WAMP on a 64bit Windows Server and was about to call it quits before I found those DLL files. It's odd that the official DLLs don't work with 64bit PHP, but I'm glad I at least found a solution.
I'm using just Apache 2.2 and PHP 5.4 in 32bit with SQLSRV 3.0 and it is now working. Note that the Thread Safe is set to Yes, thus SQLSRV ts.dlls should be used. It was a struggle. Hope this helps others.

I have both a development PC and windows server that run PHP. I'm trying to configure them for SQL server. I've downloaded SQL Server 2014 express and it's running on both.
The Development box box: 64-bit windows 7 PC, running IIS 7.5 and PHP 7.1.3
The server is 64-bit windows server 2008 running PHP version 7.1.3
I've started with the dev box and tried downloading the drivers and modifying the php.ini to add the extension.
The drivers is not loading when I run phpinfo(). With some further research, I think I have not got the correct version of the driver for my dev box. I'm currently using php_sqlsrv_54_ts.dll as my extension, but the installation media for the driver came with several .dll files and I'm not sure I have the right one. I did notice that the installation file I downloaded was SQLSRV30.EXE. I also noticed that there was SQLSRV52.EXE, but that does not support win 7. Can someone point me to the correct driver for my dev box and server.
I'm getting so frustrated with this because it's not self explanatory.
It turns out that there are no SQL drivers for PHP 7.2 that work under windows 7. I had to downgrade to PHP 7.1 and then the drivers loaded and worked.
Hi I have wampserver 64 version 2.5, php version 5.5.12 and my operating system windows 10
I downloaded the sqlsrv drivers and I put it here in the directory
C:\wamp\bin\php\php5.5.12\ext
and I paste this in my php.ini,
extension=php_pdo_sqlsrv_55_ts.dll
extension=php_sqlsrv_55_ts.dll
the php.ini is located here C:\wamp\bin\php\php5.5.12
when I restart the services this is the error will pop up
I don't know how to fix this or is there something wrong that i miss ?
Thank you in advance.
As far as I am aware there is no 64bit PHP compatible SQL Server library. You will have to install WAMPServer 32bit. This is not a WAMPServer limitation, its just that Microsoft has not yet completed the 64 bit PHP extension.
Probably they were waiting for PHP7 which is the first truly 64bit version of PHP
Similar questions seem to be all over the internet, but so far nothing has helped.
I'm currently running WampServer with Apache 2.4.4 and PHP 5.4.12 on Windows Server 2008 R2. According to the PHP documentation the drivers necessary to connect to an MSSQL server ship with the distribution; they do not. Neither php_mssql.dll (which the documentation claims is no longer necessary for PHP5.4, but which is still referenced in php.ini. Who knows) nor php_pdo_mssql.dll are present in the distribution.
Several sources pointed to these drivers from Microsoft, however I had no success either renaming the respective drivers to php_mssql.dll/php_pdo_mssql.dll or keeping the names the same (php_sqlsrv_54_nts.dll, php_pdo_sqlsrv_54_ts.dll, etc.) and modifying php.ini to point to the proper driver. Though I didn't get an error upon starting apache as I do when the driver is simply missing, I received Error!: could not find driver when attempting to point to a test php page at localhost.
This article seemed the most promising, but unfortunately ntwdblib.dll is not included in the zip distributions of PHP, contrary to what the article claims. This seems like it should be a laughably simple problem: missing drivers, which are supposedly readily available. And yet here I am... What am I doing wrong?
In case anyone else ends up here while trying to solve this problem, here are the steps that have worked for me the two times I've done it. These steps worked both on Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 8.
For my purposes, I used the latest 32-bit (x86) version of WampServer (at the time of this writing, it was 2.4, and came with Apache 2.4.4 and PHP 5.4.16). The 32-bit version is necessary, as the drivers are 32-bit; the 64-bit version will not work.
Install Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package x86
Install Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Native Client x86 (Click "Download" and select ENU\x86\sqlncli.msi. Once again, the 64-bit version will not work)
Install Microsoft ODBC Driver 11 x86 (Click "Download" and select 1033\x86\msodbcsql.msi)
Install Microsoft SQLSRV driver 3.0 in php/ext/ (For my installation, this was C:/wamp/bin/php/php5.4.16/ext/)
Edit Apache's php.ini to include the line extension=php_pdo_sqlsrv_54_ts.dll (for my installation, this was located in C:/wamp/bin/apache/Apache2.4.4/bin/)
You have to place the file in the directory for PHP/ext (bin/php/ext depending on your Wamp / Xampp installation). However, you also need the SQL server native client as per: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc296170.aspx
Goal
Connect to a MSSQL 2008 R2 server using the FreeTDS (php_dblib.dll 0.82 + 20110906 patches) Drivers for PHP 5.4.16 (VC9).
I am unable to use any alternative to FreeTDS unless the client also decides to use an alternative. This is unlikely unless they also run into this issue when upgrading their current version of PHP (currently 5.3.x) tomorrow.
Issue
PHP is unable to load the FreeTDS extension.
The Apache error log displays this on server start:
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'c:/wamp/bin/php/php5.4.16/ext/php_dblib.dll' - The specified module could not be found.\r\n in Unknown on line 0
As far as I understand it, the extension is either unable to be found or is the wrong version?
The extension directory location in the php.ini has been checked and triple checked and is:
c:/wamp/bin/php/php5.4.16/ext/
That leads me to believe it is the wrong version of php_dblib.dll. I've also checked that multiple times and made sure to use the version for PHP 5.4.X Thread Safe.
Steps Taken
Clean install of WAMP 2.4 with PHP 5.4.16 and Apache 2.4.4
Thread Safe php_dblib.dll placed in PHP extension directory
extension=php_dblib.dll added to the correct php.ini
extension=php_mssql.dll and extension=php_pdo_mssql.dll disabled in php.ini
msvcr71.dll (DotNet framework 1.1) added to PHP root directory
freetds.conf added to server root directory (c:)
System Details
WAMP Server 2.4
Apache 2.4.4
PHP 5.4.16 (VC9)
Thread Safety: enabled
FreeTDS Thread Safe (php_dblib.dll) 0.82 + 20110906 patches
Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2
msvcr71.dll (DotNet framework 1.1) only included in the PHP root directory
EDIT:
WAMP 2.4 32-bit
OS: Windows 7 Pro 64-bit
EDIT 3
Last update only applied to the 64-bit version of WAMP. I've installed the 32-bit version, again, and --without-dblib is no longer in the configure command section of the phpinfo().
Questions
With the information given, is there anything else you'd need to know about to give an accurate assessment of the situation?
I am unable to find any, but are there any known issues with FreeTDS 0.82 and PHP 5.4.16?
Temporary Defeat
I've rolled back to PHP 5.3.x for now, FreeTDS works fine on that version. I'm not sure that it will make a difference with the little bit of code I am actually delivering to the client. This was intended to be a "double" check to make sure it all works perfectly, but since I'll be on site during the install I can fix any issues if they come up.
I would like to find a solution eventually since more and more of the systems I work with every day are going to be upgraded to php 5.4 and beyond.
I have winginx on my windows machine which comes with memcached server and module. I have it running on port 11211. I have xampp on my machine as well and I need to connect to the memcached server through xampp. I used this tutorial to add the php_memcache extension to my php-xampp. Also, referenced here and here at stackoverflow. I have xampp version 1.7.4 with PHP 5.3.5 (VC6 X86 32bit).
I still get the error "class Memcache not found" or "call to undefined function memcache_connect()".
Is there a problem with the php_memcache dll I am using - I have tried both x86 and 64 bit versions?
Any help is appreciated.
The issue was with the compiler versions mismatch(I had vc6 for php and memcache was build from vc9). One of the posts from this discussion states php has dropped support for vc6, so I reinstalled xampp which had php 5.4 with vc9. Used the memcache dll in http://windows.php.net/downloads/pecl/releases/memcache/3.0.6/php_memcache-3.0.6-5.4-ts-vc9-x86.zip and everythin worked fine!
Thanks for the help.
