PHPMyAdmin.. I am lost

[DCat]

Hi,

I searched the forums and searched the web also but I cannot find anything relating to MY instance.

I have Abyss running.
I installed PHP5. It is configured into Abyss
I installed MySQL.. it is running
I installed PHPMyPadmin.

When I browse to http://localhost/phpmyadmin/

Abyss mentions it cannot find the .dll files.

I did a drive search for the .dll files and they aren't there.

When I try to search for this problem in google, the replies I get are for those who have moved these .dll files to their system32 dir(as a quick fix).

I don't have these files. Where have I gone wrong?

BTW: I followed this guide:
http://www.aprelium.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1071

Thanks,

What DLL files are they? Is it "php_mysql.dll?" If it is, then:
1) Download the PHP ZIP archive.
2) Extract /extensions/php_mysql.dll into C:\PHP\
3) Edit the php.ini file in C:\Windows and remove the semicolon in front of "php_mysql.dll" under the extensions category.

Thank you.

It was that file, and the libmysql.dll that wasn't there.

I had to drop them into ..\system32 also.

What a bumsteer! Oh well.. I hope someone else learns form this post instead of wasting 3h of time in google. ;)
