I've re-installed PHP and I'm no longer getting the error messages telling me Moodle can't find the libraries. However, it still doesn't seem to be finding them because I still get the "Caution" message against GD when I continue with the installation.
In addition to this, if I continue through the installation, after defining the database (Postgre7 seems to be the only Moodle option although the only PostgreSQL version I can find is 8) I end up with a blank page.
I'm having the same problem but with php_ldap.dll. i changed the ext directory to show c:\winnt\system32, but get "PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'c:\winnt\system32\php_ldap.dll' - The specified module could not be found. in Unknown on line 0 ".
In the process I renames c:\php4\ extensions folder and shorten it to "\ext". Thing it may be a file name length issiue, but I don't think it was it was simply a path issue....
I was having the exact same problem as Jeremy was - exactly the same. I followed Larry's instructions above and now it all magically works....?!? I just did an Extract all to C:/PHP and moodle and phpmyadmin work.
I did earlier change my php.ini file to point to C:\PHP\ext as suggested by Jonny. But this didn't do it alone (I did however check to see if the right files were in the ext folder and they were there).
Being a PHP developer you want to configure PHP 7 on your localhost for various reasons. You might want to explore the new features of PHP 7 or you might be upgrading your existing website to PHP 7 and want to test in your local machine first or you might be creating a brand new project on PHP 7. This blog will help you to configure PHP 7 for WAMP server in localhost.
Very first thing to know is PHP 7 requires minimum Apache 2.4.x and also it needs WAMP Server 2.5. If you already have WAMP 2.5, ou do not have to uninstall anything. You can configure PHP 7 with WAMP 2.5. How to check your WAMP server version? Right click on the WAMP icon on your windows taskbar and click About... It will show your current WAMP version.
Now you need to download and install Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 (Click here). This is needed for WAMP to work properly. If you are using 32 bit OS, then download 32 bit package only. If you have 64 bit OS, then I recommend to install both 32-bit as well as 64-bit packages.
Final suggestion: It is better to include the new path in your system path directory otherwise you may face some issues with you CURL extension. Go to Windows environment variable window and edit system variable "Path" to add a new string "C:\wamp\bin\php\php7.1.7;". This step will resolve the CURL error "Unable to load dynamic library 'php_curl.dll' - The specified module could not be found in Unknown on line 0"
