Bradley you are the best!! So I went to the page that u sent below that
has information specific to vista and now when i run the php test page i
actuall get a path!!!
Configuration File (php.ini) Path C:\Windows
Loaded Configuration File C:\php\php.ini
Yeah!!! but wait there's one last problem :-) .
Remember Im using Windows Vista, Apache2..2, Php5 and the latest version of
mysql. So im trying to load my test page for mysql in the browser and I get a
"this website cannot be displayed" error HTTP 500. This is the test page that
im running: ( not sure if there's something wrong with the codes or if i have a
new problem now) Thanks in advance guys.
<?php
/* Program: mysql_up.php
* Desc: Connects to MySQL Server and
* outputs settings.
*/
echo "<html>
<head><title>Test MySQL</title></head>
<body>";
$host="localhost";
$user="root";
$password="Antigua";
$cxn = mysqli_connect($host,$user,$password);
$sql="SHOW STATUS";
$result = mysqli_query($cxn,$sql);
if($result == false)
{
echo "<h4>Error: ".mysqli_error($cxn)."</h4>";
}
else
{
/* Table that displays the results */
echo "<table border='1'>
<tr><th>Variable_name</th>
<th>Value</th></tr>";
for($i = 0; $i < mysqli_num_rows($result); $i++)
{
echo "<tr>";
$row_array = mysqli_fetch_row($result);
for($j = 0;$j < mysqli_num_fields($result);$j++)
{
echo "<td>".$row_array[$j]."</td>\n";
}
}
echo "</table>";
}
?>

grrrrrrrr Ok that didnt work either. Moved it again to the windows directory

Hello,
I am trying to test that php is working properly with apache and with mysql and
I keep getting the following error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysqli_connect() in
C:\Apache2.2\htdocs\mysql_up.php on line 13
Now I have done absolutely everything that I have read in all of these forums
and it still is not working. Below is a list of all that I have done so far:
1. Addded PHP to the windows path by going to "Advanced System Settings"
and adding C:/php to the path.
2. The php.ini file is currently located at c:/php/php.ini
3. I have tried moving the php.ini file to the windows folder of my
computer that didnt work.
4. I have removed the restrictive comment from the extension php_mysqli.dll
5. I have re started apache several times.
6. Php in itself does seem to be working because I did create a test php
page and below is what shows up on that page. From what I have read the fact
that the loadedconfiguration file section is blank means that my computer is
not able to locate the php.ini file but i honestly have no clue where else to
put it because i've tried copying it everywhere to no avail.
Please help if you can. Below is what I got from a test page when i tested php
alone on apache...however when i try to test if all three are working i get the
above error.

It went poof. It was actually stored in your account and only appeared to
be in c:\windows. NOW put a php.ini in there.
This looks like a good vista walk-through for you.
