VistasPDO sqlsrv: could not find driver
I trying to connect to an SQL Server in PHP. With XAMPP on my local machine, everything works well. But now I going to bring my application on the production server.
On this server there is installed the Microsoft IIS 6.1 and running the PHP version 7.0.7. I also installed the ODBC Driver from here. Next I decomment the following line in my php.ini file:
extension=php_sqlsrv_7_nts.dll
extension=php_pdo_sqlsrv_7_nts.dll
I got the files from the official microsoft site.
What's my problem?
Unfortunately, after I restarted the IIS. The PDO function throws the PDOException error with the following message:
could not find driver
For the connection I am using the following function which works pretty well on my local machine:
try {
$con = new PDO("sqlsrv:Server=" . SERVER . ";Database=" . DATABASE, USERNAME, PASSWORD);
// set the PDO error mode to exception
$con->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
} catch (PDOException $e) {
echo "No connection: " . $e->getMessage();
exit;
}
What can I else do?

Here is detailed process if it's helpful for someone. PHP Version - 7.4
Download and extract the
.dllfiles from this link - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/connect/php/download-drivers-php-sql-server?view=sql-server-ver15Paste the files in
C:\xampp\php\ext, your path could be different.in
php.iniadd those two lines at bottom or in extension section.extension=php_sqlsrv_74_ts_x64.dll extension=php_pdo_sqlsrv_74_ts_x64.dllRestart your Xampp server, I'll suggest restart your computer and everything will work without an issue then.
Check if SqlSRV enabled
Check using phpinfo() or http://localhost/dashboard/phpinfo.php at like this -
Hope, it will help someone.

After I found the error log on the Windows Server, I solved the error by myself.
I got this error in my log:
[21-Apr-2017 07:12:14 UTC] PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '...\ext\php_pdo_sqlsrv_7_nts.dll' - %1 is not a valid Win32 application. in Unknown on line 0
Then I downloaded again the driver and installed the x64-Driver. Finally It works without any problems.

It took some time for me to solve the 'No driver'-error. I went through some steps as mentioned here and found some other ones that helped me after new errors. For future references:
- Download the latest drivers from Microsoft (as said by Julian Schmuckli).
- Check if your XAMPP is 64 bits(!) with Phpinfo(). If you've got 32-bit, you need different drivers.
- Add the drivers to your Php.ini file and save the dll's in your php/ext-folder (question of saber tabatabaee yazdi).
- For the connection, use this code:
$dbh = new PDO ("sqlsrv:Server=$server;Database=$dbname",$username,$pw);
If you add a port, use:
$server = "192.168.1.15, 51022";
Where the IP (can be hostname to) is your server and 51022 your port.
