Cannot Load MySQL Extension
Posted April 30, 2007 
Comments(7) If you are getting this error (Cannot Load MySQL Extension. Please check your PHP configuration) when running phpmyadmin with browser, you need to enable the mysql extension.
1) Edit your php.ini and make sure the following line was uncommented:
extension=php_mbstring.dll
extension=php_mysql.dll
2) Copy \PHP\libmysql.dll to the \windows\system32 if you were running mysql on windows.
3) Restart your server
You can use this simple script to test. It can tell you whether the mysql extensions is successfully loaded.
if (!@function_exists('mysql_get_server_info')) {
echo “Mysql is not loaded”;
}else{
echo “Mysql is successfully loaded”;
}
