Issue
I am using
- Xampp version 3.2.1 with PHP version 5.6.8.
- Microsoft Azure SQL server
GOAL
I am trying to create a web app that will access to my database, and be able to SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE records.
PROBLEM
I cannot connect to the database server
ERROR
Fatal error: Call to undefined function sqlsrv_connect() in C:\xampp\htdocs\BLT\Employee_Database .php on line 25
CODE
<html>
<head>
<Title>Employee Database</Title>
</head>
<body>
<form method="post" action="?action=add" enctype="multipart/form-data">
Last name <input type="text" name="LastName" id="LastName"/></br>
First name <input type="text" name="FirstName" id="FirstNamne"/></br>
E-mail address <input type="text" name="Email" id="Email"/></br>
User Id <input type="text" name="UserId" id="UserId"/></br>
Password <input type="password" name="Password" id="Password"/></br>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit"/>
</form>
<?php
$serverName = "jy4nij6vuy.database.windows.net,1433";
$connectionOptions = array("Database" => "robertfarb",
"UID" => "robertFarb",
"PWD" => "******");
$conn = sqlsrv_connect($serverName, $connectionOptions);
if ($conn === false) {
die(print_r(sqlsrv_errors(), true));
}
?>
</body>
</html>
THIS IS WHAT I TRIED SO FAR
- I have installed the Microsoft PHP for SQL drivers and followed all the instructions to load the driver, but it does not seem to be working!
- I added the
php_sqlsrv_56.ts.dllfile to the extensions folder of PHP, and also thephp_pdo_sqlsrv_56.ts.dll. - I also added the
extension=php_sqlsrv_56.ts.dllline to the php.ini file.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Solution
The MSSQL extension is not available anymore on Windows with PHP 5.3 or later. SQLSRV, an alternative driver for MS SQL is available from Microsoft: » http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=20098
Step by Step
Download SQLSRV32.EXE (Microsoft Drivers for PHP for SQL Server) from: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=20098
Choose path: C:\xampp\php\ext
Uncomment or Append
extension = php_sqlsrv_56_ts.dllinphp.iniRestart Apache from XAMPP Control Panel (Stop/Start)
I tested it and it works 100%
You can find the most recent compiled binaries in the official Microsoft Git repository.
