Call to undefined function sqlsrv_connect() with WAMP

Question

I know that this question has already been asked several times on this website but I\'m seriously starting to wonder wheter I\'m crazy or not.

My configuration : Wam

Answer 1

Installing just the PHP extension is not enough, you also need to install Microsoft® ODBC Driver 11 for SQL Server® - Windows

The ODBC drivers can be found here

And newer drivers can be found here

Also the best way to ensure you are editing the correct php.ini file is to use the wampmanager menus. So in future do :-

wampmanager -> PHP -> php.ini

This will load the correct php.ini into yoru editor.

C:\wamp\bin\php\php{version}\php.ini is used only by PHP CLI

C:\wamp\bin\apache\apache{version}\bin\php.ini is used only by PHP when running under Apache
