Xampp MS SQL PHP 5.6 Server

Question

My xampp works with PHP 5.6. I usually use a mysql server, but for a script that already exists, I need an MS SQL server.

I searched the net and installed SQL Server 2012.

But now I need drivers for PHP. Unfortunately, I can only find a version that supports 5.4, 5.5 ..

( http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/sqlserver/ff657782.aspx )

Is there any way to enable this work with 5.6?

Answer 1

I searched the net for a while. After posting this question for 10 meters, I finally found an unofficial driver.

Hope it works, I will check it.

Answer 2

Microsoft recently released a new version (3.2) of SQL Drivers for PHP, which includes compatibility with PHP 5.6.

Answer 3

I think the time to review this answer is a little better. Since you were pretty clear in the settings. The short answer is placed as the steps below.

• Download ver 3.2 from the SQLSRV drivers. https://www.microsoft.com/download/details.aspx?id=20098
• Extract them to your "xampp installation path" \ php \ ext
• Please provide viewing and saving files: php_sqlsrv_56_ts.dll and php_pdo_sqlsrv_56_ts.dll

• Please delete the extra files below:

  PHP Drivers License Terms.rtf, php_pdo_sqlsrv_54_nts.dll, php_pdo_sqlsrv_54_ts.dll, php_pdo_sqlsrv_55_nts.dll, php_pdo_sqlsrv_55_ts.dll, php_pdo_sqlsrv_56_nts.dll, php_sqlsrv_54_nts.dll, php_sqlsrv_54_ts.dll, php_sqlsrv_55_nts.dll, php_sqlsrv_55_ts.dll, php_sqlsrv_56_nts.dll, release.txt, SQLSRV_Readme.htm, SQLSRV_ThirdPartyNotices.rtf, 

  • Put these lines in your php.ini on your "xampp installation path" \ php \ php.ini extension = php_sqlsrv_56_ts.dll extension = php_pdo_sqlsrv_56_ts.dll

  • Restart the XAMPP server and put '<'? php phpinfo () ;? '>' in the index.php file in the \ htdocs \ 'folder'

  • Go to it using http: // localhost / 'where phpinfofile' / index.php is located
