Help me please!

I have followed all the instructions posted on this page http://www.apachelounge.com/viewtopic.php?t=570, and it found me very terriffic my Apache/2.2.3 (Win32) PHP/5.1.4 actively working. But the sad thing was when i've tested the phpinfo.php no mysql extension been enable... so what i did i goto C:\php5\php.ini to enable the said extension
extension=php_mysql.dll (remove comment ";") but again it doesn't show up or still the extension is disable...

How can I enable that mysql extension to make the server totally 100% working?

Please help me... Thank you!

I trust that you copied the httpd.exe.manifest to the PHP folder.

Since you did not mention it:

Note: Anytime you make changes to either the Apache CONF or the php.ini you must Stop Apache (or Restart) for changes to take effect.

If the extension still does not load...Try this:

    Copy the libmySQL.dll in C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin (or wherever you installed MySQL Server) to C:\php5. If Apache is running either Stop then Start, or perform a Restart.


Please let me know if this works and I'll add to my original post.
Thanks!

Copy libmySQL.dll to Apache\bin folder, than it should work.
