Where can i get the php 5.3.8 dll extension to enable connection to a DB2 database. I tried searching the net and was unable to find any download links. :(
regards,

You can find many of this info here

I tried download dlls from various sources but at the end XAMPP was the solution. If you install this application server download from XAMPP home page.
This contains the a php and within a php.ini and the right dlls - so it worked for me.
If you are trying to connect to zOS or iSeries systems then you might face licensing issues too..

I have an application where i need to connect my web (PHP based) application with desktop application database so that both desktop and web can communicate with each other.
On ubuntu OS connectivity is working fine but when i comes to windows 7 codeigniter sql server connectivity is not working.
i tried visual c++ redistributional packages as well as other instructions provided on many platforms but fails.
i also added extensions in php\ext and dll files as well as include that extensions like sql_serv55_nts like that but nothing is working.
last error that i am receiving is
application not be run as php5.dll is missing .
can some one help to figure this out as soon as possible and can send me proper tested procedure for this.
As you say you have installed the sql_serv55_nts version of the SQLServer libraries, this is your problem.
Instead install the TS (Thread Safe) version of the SQLServer libraries. XAMPP on windows runs Thread Safe.
The php5.dll is the Non Thread Safe version of php5ts.dll which is supplied with the XAMPP install of PHP.
Once you install the TS version of SQLServer libraries delete the php5.dll it is not required, also you got it from a source that you cannot be sure is safe. A simple rule of thumb If it was required it would have come with the XAMPP install.
NOTE: You should never need to copy anything related to Apache/PHP/MYSQL into the Windows system folders. If you do, when you come to install another version of XAMPP it will still be there and will cause you hours of debugging to find out why you are having odd issues.
ALSO: It is also dangerous adding anything XAMPP or WAMPServer related to the Windows PATH as this will also cause you issues when you come to update XAMPP/WAMPServer as you are bound to forget that this was done.
Try adding your php directory and your php extensions directory to your PATH environment variables.
I resolved issue in following way.
Install xampp with php 5.5
install microsoft re distributional package
download php5.ddl file from php5.dll
if window is 32 bit than just copy downloaded php5.dll into windows/system32
if you have 64bit window than you need to copy it into windows/SysWOW64 too.
best is to restart your PC
All done......
I have installed the entire lamp stack with homebrew on my macbook pro. I am in need of getting the sybase module installed but am having the worst time trying to figure it out. I have done upteen google searches and read over the php.net section on sybase:
http://php.net/manual/en/sybase.installation.php
I have no clue when it says:
To enable Sybase-CT support configure PHP --with-sybase-ct[=DIR]
I was hoping to reach out to someone who has enabled/installed this on a mac or unix environment. Hope you can let me know the steps I need to run to get this up and running so I can use:
sybase_connect();
Thanks in advance.
You can also use FreeTDS to connect to Sybase from your Mac's PHP. Will be much easier than trying to configure the Sybase-CT library.
That section is asking for where on your system the Sybase installation is. To connect to a Sybase DB, you need to have either the client piece, SDK, or server piece installed on the local system.
The Sybase home directory includes the connection libraries that PHP is looking for.
I just updated my Wamp Server and got a problem now.
My SQLSRV extension wont get loaded correctly.
I dont know where the problem is exactly because i dont get any errors on startup. Also the error log is clean. There is just a little red triangle instead of a check in the php extension list:
Some Information:
Windows Server 2012 x64
Wamp 2.5 32BIT
PHP5.5
The Warning Icon means one of 2 things :-
Either the extension= line is in your php.ini but the dll it points to is not in your \ext folder
Or the dll exists in the ext folder but not in your php.ini
Which one is it in your case. If you updated WAMPServer the SQLServer dll does not come with any PHP install by default, so you will have to download it from the microsoft site.
hmm, i still cant understand this error. sure i know that i have to download the SQL driver manually. And i know only the "SQLSRV31.EXE" driver is working with Win Server 2K12. I downloaded this one and copied all php5.5 drivers into the /ext folder. Then i copied the name of the dll`s and added them to the php.ini:

I will tryout installing the older wamp version with php5.4 included. May this will work =)
I also experienced the same thing happened to you. I tried many things but didn't work at all. I installed all the things required for Wamp like Microsoft visual basics 2012 but it still didn't worked.
This is the most important thing, for me this problem happened because i download wamp server 2.5 from the official wamp server site. http://www.wampserver.com/Mk
DON'T DO IT. it's totally a shit. then i download wamp server 2.4(old version) from this site called FIRE HORSE. this is the link http://www.filehorse.com/download-wampserver-32/
I downloaded and installed wamp server 2.4 from this site and it worked perfectly fine. and i also installed the latest Joomla version 3.4.5 in wamp server. Now i'm using it 100% fine. Many thanks for FIRE HORSE site.
I hope you all will find this useful and don't forget to tell me if i'm wrong because i'm still in learning progress i just shared my experience with you all. thank you.
I have installed Vertrigo Server with [Apache 2.0] & [PHP 5.2.14] on Windows XP X32 but Vertrigo server doesn't includes OCI8.DLL extension for Oracle Database. When I tried to copy this DLL file from another version of PHP I got Apache error:
[v_apache.exe]: The application cannot start because php5.dll is
missing.
Without this DLL file everything is wokrking OK, but I need to connect with oracle Database. Have you any solutions how to add OCI8.DLL extension in that version of PHP and Apache?
Thanks.
Simpliest way is to use Zend Server CE.
It has latest stable apache with latest stable PHP stack, also with oci libraries (and much more).
Download for free (registration required).
After long time searching over the internet finaly I found soltion for it. Strange is that Apache doesn't alert error about real problem, it just says that problem is with 80 port, even when 80 port is free.
Solution is very simle: I just installed Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package and after averithing was running correctly.

you didn't mention what OS you're using. just the same, here's a link: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/install-mysql-php-support-for-wordpress/

What is the path to php_mysql.dll? Is it correct in php.ini?
If you don't have access to php.ini, talk to your web host.
