apache win32 + php + mysql issues

[betam4x]

hello all, i've just recently reinstalled windows, and i'm having a very
bad problem with apache (win32) + mysql + php.

For starters i installed everything like normal.

Apache v. 2.0.50
PHP v. 4.3.8
Mysql 4.1.4Gamma

I then installed phpmyadmin, i noticed it was having a problem
connecting to the database, citing an incompatible/outdated client. I
looked up some infos in the documentation and it told me to check the
version of the php api by calling phpinfo();

Client API version 3.23.49

Why is it only 3.x? Shouldn't it be 4.xx.xx? Is this the reason
phpmyadmin won't work? How do i fix this?

please help me, i'm pulling my hair out!

btw i've deleted all occurances of libmysql.dll and still have the same
issue.

Looks like you have two versions of PHP installed. I don't run windows so I
can't be much help, but I'd go to Add/Remove programs and get rid of both of
them and then reinstall the 4.xx and go from there.

My friend, do yourself a favor and install from a package. Everything
would be done for you this way, and very unlikely you would see any
problems like you mentioned. I install from appserv but there are
others.
