Question
I'm a beginner for this. I'm trying to install mongodb driver on php.
Platform: Windows 8.1 64bit.
PHP 5.5.9
Apache/2.4.7
Followed the instruction here:http://php.net/manual/en/mongo.installation.php#mongo.installation.windows
I've tried all php_mongo.dll file with VC11 and put in php/ext folder. and
added extension=php_mongo.dll
in php.ini file but when I tried to start
apache in xampp controller I got an error.
Php Startup: Unable to load dynamic library
'C:\xampp\php\ext\php_mongo.dll' -%1 is not a valid Win32 application.
I've already check my VC compilator version inside phpinfo() and it's stated
there MSVC11
with architecture: x86
.
it would be nice if someone can help me. Thanks. appreciate it.
Answer
Make sure you download the correct .DLL for your PHP installation. Good chance
you're running apache x86, so download an x86 php_mongo.dll
. Also if you're
running PHP as an Apache module, make sure you pick the thread safe (ts)
one
and also pick this type of dll
that matches the PHP version you're running.
The versions must match or else you will get a php startup error. Find these Mongo DLLs here.
I did this then I got an error libsasl.dll
not found. I simply copied the
libsasl.dll
found in my PHP installation directory to the Apache
installation directory (where httpd.exe
is found). Then I restarted my
Apache and it worked!
