I'm not certain that I have a clear understanding of the relationship between the
Apache Web Server and PHP. I can't say exactly where I got the idea, but it is my
impression that the PHP executable is called by httpd, and given that, PHP would be
executing under the same user account as Apache. If that is so, then the answer to the
question:
"Are the Mysql dlls etc. readable/executable by the user account that is running
php?"
is "Yes". I have started httpd manually by opening a command window as the
Windows Administrator which has full control over the mysqld.exe file.

Hi,
2009/9/8 <cknell(a)onebox.com>om>:
I have a command-line program for interacting with
MySQL running at the moment. I am able to connect to the instance of MySQL and query the
database. In the world of Windows a "service" has a particular connotation. Is
your question, "Do you have MySQL installed as a Windows service, and is it
running?", or is it more general as I describe in my first two sentences?
I was referring to the first situation. If it is running and
accessible from the commandline then that should be OK...
Not sure what the problem might be. Perhaps a permission issue? Are
the Mysql dlls etc. readable/executable by the user account that is
running php?
