mysqi extension is missing

I had uncommented the 'extension=php_mysqli.dll' in the PHP config file but I'm still getting the error message that my mySQLi extension is missing. What else do I verify?

Was on this problem for hours...

Solved it by changing extension_dir = "ext" to extension_dir = "C:/PHP-5.5.13/ext"

Seems like it doesn't like relative pathing...

For anyone else using ubuntu. I ran into this problem on a fresh ubuntu installation. I solved it by adding this line to php.ini.

extension=mysqli.so

My php.ini was located @ /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini

After restarting your web service, check PHP info:

phpinfo();

Does the extension appear there? If so, it loaded correctly. If not, you are likely missing the DLL, or have the wrong extension path.

Look for something like this: mysqli extension
