Of course not! Microsofts latest officially released drivers are compiled for PHP 5.6 (as the name already says) only.
There are no PHP 7 compiles available, just an early technical preview: https://github.com/Azure/msphpsql/releases/tag/v4.0.0

My recommandation is to use XAMPP 5.6.X instead of XAMPP 7 yet.

best wishes,

its the same problem with xampp 5,6 :/// maby its can't wor with sql 2012 and windows server 2012r ?
maby xampp team have specialist who can log in to vps via vnc and look ?

Thx for your help .. I think something blocking xampp in my Vps I will try to find solution :// but it's really weird

Solution is : MSSQL Connection working only with xampp1,7,x version(its got php_mssql.dll extension already inside) other versions supported only SQLSRV (1,7 is old wersion and fully working only with old sql server versions like 2005-2008 )
for me is only 1 solution wayt for new xampp maby its will got inside mssql connect to sql server 2012
anyway thx for help !
