Topic : Mysqli library not loading, not compiled into AMPPS 3.5 for php 5.5 and above?


Posted By: r2php2 on May 26, 2016, 4:30 am
In AMPPS 3.3 mysqli was available in (compiled into) all PHP versions to 5.6. Now in AMPPS 3.5 it is only available in PHP 5.4 and below. Everything above 5.4 only has the mysqlnd library loaded. I have confirmed this by running phpinfo() and looking in the 'Configure Command' output for the appropriate libraries being compiled into the versions of PHP.

In AMPPS 3.5 php 5.5 and above I can not get mysqli or mysql libraries being noted in the phpinfo() loaded library's list.

Am I correct that mysqli library is no longer compiled into php's above 5.4 in AMPPS 3.5 from now on, or am I missing something real basic?

In attempts to get the mysqli library loaded I have configured php to 'use' the mysqli.so modules, in PHP 5.5 and above, to no avail. I done this two ways, by direct editing of the php.ini and/or using the APPS built-in 'Php Extension' dialog. I have restarted Apache and also restarted the computer to get a clean load. No dice.

I am running a fresh install of the Mac version of AMPPS 3.5. Thanks for any help/ideas to get mysqli loaded.

p.s. Thanks for making this AMP stack available for free. Nice work.
