I'm trying to get PHP set up to connect to a SQL Server database. I'm looking for the php_mssql.dll file to put in my extensions directory but for the life of me can't locate it online. Can anyone help?

Download the Zip (not installer) version of your version of PHP from the PHP site and extract it, you will find it in the ext folder here.
You can also try the Microsoft SQL driver for PHP

You should find it in the "ext" directory of php package, but only of PHP 5.2.X, PHP 5.3 doesn't include dll for mssql.

I uncommented the loadfile line in php.ini for the sybase module but after restarting apache and trying a connection i get call to undefined function. is there anything else i need to add? – iamjonesy Aug 25 '10 at 12:51

Check with phpinfo() if sysbase module is active. Are you using Apache or IIS? – lg. Aug 25 '10 at 14:25
