Apache Friends Support Forum

Hi,

I installed the recent version of Xampp which is my absolute favourite local web server and I noticed the following:

1. MySQL server version is 5.1.33
2. MySQL Client API library version is 5.0.51b
3. MySQL Client API header version is 5.0.51a

Is it something I should worry about?
PhpMyAdmin version 3.1.4 gives me a warning that "This may cause unpredictable behavior". PhpMyAdmin 3.1.3.1 says nothing in that matter.

Is it possible to fix somehow?
Does PHP support MySql 5.1.33?
I think that the libraries involved are libmysql.dll and PHP extensions php_mysql.dll and php_mysqli.dll.

I noticed also that there are more than one copy of libmysql.dll:
- in \Xampp\apache\bin
- in \Xampp\mysql\bin (this is the newest one)
- in \Xampp\php\bin
Which one is relevant during Xampp run time?

Kind regards
mjw

No tips?

I too am looking for a fix for this

Thanks a lot!

- in \Xampp\mysql\bin (this is the newest one)

try the following:
rename all other libmysql.dll to, e.g., old-libmysql.dll
copy \Xampp\mysql\bin\libmysql.dll into your %windir%\systems32\ directory
(or into the first folder in your search path)

So did this work? I tried copying the dll to all the other locations you listed. When I bring up mySqlAdmin, it now shows that the client and server match, but it doesn't run. For now, I reverted back to the older client.

I'm hoping this will be fixed when the developers add PHP 5.3 final to XAMPP...

As yet Xampp works ok with this version difference.
I've seen something about a bug... but I don't recall whether it was a bug in MySQL library, in PhpAdmin or somewhere else.
