MySQL (version 5.1.47) will not work now that I've installed PHP 5.3.2. Is the php_mysqli.dll file (dated 3/3/2010) bad?
I'm running this on Windows (if that matters).
Where can I get a good php_mysqli.dll file, or is there some other problem?
The only error message is a timeout after 30 seconds.
No it's fine. your installation seems to be no complete. Check your php.ini settings
Not sure if you ever found a resolution for this, but if not... which version of Windows?
Are you trying to connect via 'localhost'? If so, try using '127.0.0.1' instead. If that works, then the timeout was caused by Windows' internal DNS service resolving 'localhost' to '::1' rather than '127.0.0.1' due to PHP's inability to handle IPv6 very well.

Strange you should mention that. I found that on some other site.

Oddly works fine as localhost on a different server, and it used to work as localhost on the problem server also, but changed it to 127.0.0.1 and that fixed it.
And today was the first time I got a useful error message: #2002
Before it said nothing useful.
