First of all I just downloaded the newest wampserver which has Apache 2.2.11, MySQL 5.1.36, and PHP 5.3.0
I just read the above and still find I need to ask about the following error:
PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'c/wamp/bin/php/php5.3.0/ext/php_mcrypt.dll" - The specified module could not be found.
First of all my php_mcrypt did not show up in my php extensions list either so I did the following:
(1) I receive a copy of php_mcrypt.dll ver 5.2.9.9 from a friend, and I was told to put it in the following folder:
c:/wamp/bin/php/php5.3.0/ext which I did
(2) Then I was told to make sure my php.ini had the following text string in it:
extension=php_mcrypt.dll
which I did, then I saved the file
(3) Then I was told to right click on wampserver and click on refresh
(4) Then thats when I got the above message
(5) Then I googled php_mcrypt.dll looking for a fix and I read that it needed to be put in the following:
c:/windows/system32 folder
which I did also and I still get the same above error message.
Could you please tell me the following:
Where do we get the right php_mcrypt.dll file, what folder does it need to be in, and does it matter in the php.ini
file where the text string extension=php_mcrypt.dll is located?
Also what does it mean in the php.ini file that reads the following:
Be sure to appropriately set the extension_dir directive ?
Any and all help is GREATLY APPRECIATED
