Hello,

I am having the same problem, but I don't have a config.inc.php. I have a config.inc, and it says I should update config.inc.php. Any other suggestions?

take care,
lee

config.inc is actually config.inc.php, and you have to disable "Hide known extension ..." in Windows property to see your real extension

ok,

Thanks for the help, but I'm still having a problem. I made the change you said. Now it says cannot load mysql. I checked the PHP.ini file and the extension = mysql is uncommented.

any other suggestions?

take care,
lee

"open congif.inc.php in c:/wamp/apps/phpmyadmin

Sedarch for mysqli and change to mysql"

I did that, did not work.
I'm ready for downgrading now :-(#

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!

I downgraded to WAMP 1.7.2 and have the same problem again!

What a nightmare!

I used this version for years no prob, I upgrade, all goes kaput, I downgrade, all stays kaput. I'm so screwed.

I'm having this same problem.

WAMP 2.0 was working out of the box with mysqli. Suddently one day I get this error.

Tried uninstalling WAMP, and then instlaling it again. Still this error.

Then I uninstalled Wamp and installed xampp instead. Same error still.

There must be something which is messed up in the registry / services / system-directory .... is all I can think of, at least.

Any clues, guys?

Hi, how do I find these?

I also tried [apache2triad.net] the other day btw - and I get the same problem with that one .. so something is messed up somewhere.

yep, it's really messed up since you install too many web server and they conflict each other to the point you have hard time to find the real cause; the simplest fix might be reformat hard drive, install windows and wamp only

I used everybodies examples to help figure out the problem and I did something a tad different to fix this problem so hope this helps anyone.

When I installed this wamp server on my windows vista computer, I already had apache, php, & mysql installed previously but I installed wamp over everything and it seemed like it worked but couldn't use my phpmyadmin. so what I had to do was remove all the programs in my control panel including apache, php, and mysql. I also deleted the folder directory completely off of my computer than I reinstalled wamp and now phpmyadmin works fine.

Hope it helps, holla

A suggestion, do not install WAMP in a location that has spaces in the path (ex. "c:\Program Files\wamp" ). I've had the mysqli issue and other issues in Windows XP and Windows Vista when I installed into the Program Files directory.

When I reinstall into a path without spaces (ex. c:\ProgramFiles\wamp" ), the mysqli issue (and some other issues) go away.
