I installed apache and php and have it up and running (I can access the php.ini via localhost). I'm trying to access mysqli code and cannot find it. The following script indicates mysqli doesn't exist.

As with enabling any PHP extension (such as php_mysqli.dll), the PHP directive extension_dir should be set to the directory where the PHP extensions are located. See also the Manual Windows Installation Instructions. I've got some problems with the following error: 'Your PHP installation appears to be missing the MySQL extension which is required by WordPress.' I've been searching.

I already modified the php.ini file to uncomment extension=php_mysqli.dll as well as the windows extension_dir (extension_dir = 'ext')

I had to change the extension_dir = 'ext' to 'c:/php/ext'

I have looked through all of the forums that I could find relevant to this question and my problem yet nothing works. I have apache2.2 with php5, phpMyAdmin, and MySQL. I have uncommented the extension, I have checked my phpinfo() and mysqli does not come up. My config directory is where it should be and it still will not load.

I know this is a while ago but I encountered this and followed the other answers here but to no avail, I found the solution via this question (Stackoverflow Question)

Essentially just needed to edit the php.ini file (mine was found at c:xamppphpphp.ini) and uncomment these lines...

After restarting apache all was working as expected.

This article can help you Configuring PHP with MySQL for Apache 2 or IIS in Windows. Look at the section 'Configure PHP and MySQL under Apache 2', point 3:

You must uncomment extension_dir param line and set it to absolute path to the PHP extensions directory.

I've been searching for hours and no one could help me. I did asimple thing to solve this problem. (WINDOWS 10 x64)

Follow this:

1 - Go to your php_mysqli.dll path (in my case: C:/xampp/php/ext);

2 - Move the php_mysqli.dll to the previous folder (C:/xampp/php);

3 - Open php.ini and search the line: 'extension: php_mysqli.dll';

4 - Change to the path where is your file: extension='C:xamppphpphp_mysqli.dll';

5 - Restart your application (wampp, xampp, etc.) and start Apache Server;

The problem was the path ext/php_mysqli.dll, I've tried changing the line to extension='C:xamppphpextphp_mysqli.dll' but doesn't worked.

I encountered this problem today and eventually I realize it was the comment on the line before the mysql dll's that was causing the problem.

This is what you should have in php.ini by default for PHP 5.5.16:

Besides removing the semi-colons, you also need to delete the line of comment that came after php_exif.dll. This leaves you with

This solves the problem in my case.
