Perhaps you can assist me, I'm trying to do a

MediaWiki on my desktop. I installed MediaWiki, then I installed
SQLServer, then I installed PHP5 all on my local machine.
MediaWiki does not support Microsoft SQL Server.

Could not load MySQL driver! Please compile php --with-mysql or install
the mysql.so module.
Make sure your PHP distribution includes the MySQL extension, and if
necessary enable it in php.ini. Please see the installation instructions
for PHP.
I already saw you post here:
http://mail.wikipedia.org/pipermail/mediawiki-l/2005-May/005285.html,
but wasn't enough information to help solve my problem. I'm using
Windows 2000. When I installed PHP 5.0.5, I downloaded the "PHP 5.0.5
installer" and ran that executable. Thus I did no compiling. Should I
be?
Try the .ZIP instead of the installer; last I checked they claimed the
installer didn't include any extensions, which makes it pretty useless.
