Stock Installation - Failed?

I have tried to install this version 1.7.3 on two machines now both completely new builds of windows XP and when I attempt to view PHPMyAdmin and or the SQLLiteManager it does not load but instead has warning and error messages.

PHP and SQL seems to be working through the fact i can view localhost and access the SQL prompt.

Have i done anything wrong? Missed a step or something?

The PHPMyAdmin error message is

phpMyAdmin - Error
Cannot start session without errors, please check errors given in your PHP and/or webserver log file and configure your PHP installation properly.

SQLLite error message is
Error :
The SQLite extension can't be loaded.


Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

>phpMyAdmin - Error: Cannot start session
you have to set

session.save_path "c:/windows/temp"

or whereever everybody has write rights.

I don't use sqllite but maybe you have to uncomment the sqllite line in php.ini

ask <?php phpinfo(); ?> which php.ini is used and don't forget to restart the webserver after changes.

I have changed this setting and it still does not work.

Previously was C:/Wamp/TMP/

Both of the machines are logged in as Administrator with no antivirus/firewall that could be causing the problem. They are intended use for only network use so there is no need for virus protection/firewall etc.

Thank you for your help though it was definately worth a try.

I edited both PHP.ini files (2 were found in the installation)

Allright! managed to get past that unable to start error by creating a few folders.
I was looking at the log file and i noticed that despite having included a path for it was unable to create folders and didnt want to default to the folder i set it to....

[Wed Oct 31 18:31:25 2007] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] PHP Warning: Unknown: open(C:\\DOCUME~1\\VIND_S~1\\LOCALS~1\\Temp\\php\\session\\sess_usec675ck6remfsplde8fnlhv0, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in Unknown on line 0

So after creating the folder \php\session\ it let me past! smiling smiley


However now i'm stuck at another error.

phpMyAdmin - Error
Cannot load mysql extension. Please check your PHP configuration. - Documentation

I have checked in both PHP ini files that mysql.dll and mysqli.dll are not commented out.

I'm really hopeless. I hope one of you can help me.

Thank you
Sincerely.

maybe there are some files left from an older installation
(normally wamp5 works after 15 minutes "out of the box"winking smiley!?
ask <?php phpinfo(); ?> for the location of the (really used) extension_dir.
ceck whether the php_mysql(i).dll files are there.
