CGI to ISAPI, now no MySQLi

Have been running PHP 5.1.1 successfully for quite some time as CGI in IIS
5.1 on my Windows XP Pro SP2 laptop, with MySQL Server 5.0.18 and the
mysqli extension. I wanted to see if I could get away from some CGI
timeouts I've been experiencing by moving from GCI to ISAPI on PHP. So I
removed the mapping for the CGI .exe and added in the mapping for the
php5isapi.dll, which in C:\PHP. The php_mysqli.dll file is in C:\PHP\ext.
I made sure extension_dir = "C:\PHP\ext " was set in php.ini, and that the
uncommented line extension=php_m ysqli.dll was present there as well.
Following the directions of some other discussions I read elsewhere, I also
moved the libmysql.dll file from C:\PHP to C:\WINDOWS\syst em32. I stopped
and restarted IIS. Now, the error I get on the first line of PHP in my app
that tries to create a new mysqli object is:

Fatal error: Class 'mysqli' not found in C:\Inetpub\wwwr oot\vsx\include s
\sessions.php on line 34

What am I missing here! I'm tearing my hair out now. Someone please tell
me what setting I have to change to get MySQLi to work in PHP 5.1.x as an
ISAPI.

Is your php.ini sitting in C:\PHP? The ISAPI module won't use it if
it's there.

Yes, as a matter of fact, my php.ini IS sitting in C:\PHP. Where should it
instead go?

Put it in C:\Windows.

That's exactly where I put it (having read that elsewhere), and all is
working now. Thank you.

There's never any need to move things to the Windows system directories, and
it only leads to pain later. You can do it more cleanly with environment
variables.

Use PHPRC to control where the php.ini file is read from.
Use PATH to add DLLs.

Agree. Putting stuff in C:\Windows isn't the best. On the other hand,
it gets really confusing when you put it somewhere else.
