I am using 3.4, fpc 3.2.2. Has libmysql.dll been included in that? I am using xampp phpmyadmin, on my laptop, and don't have libmysql.dll in my windows/system directory or the root directory of my application, and it does not seem to require it.

We don't distribute libraries.

If you have phpmyadmin, then normally you must have a mysql client library somewhere (unless php was compiled with a static version of the lib). It's probably named differently. libmysqlclient or somesuch.

I?ll try that. I have removed all instances of libmysql.dll from my laptop and it runs fine. However, my desktop doesn?t

Perhaps this link gives you some useful hints:

I never used mysql but for sqlite i learned : the *.dll have to be in the directory where your application *.exe exists

Good luck

Take into consideration that both the exe and the dll should have the same architecture (both 32 or 64 bits). This is a common issue for a dll not being working.

Place the Dll on your exe's folder or in a folder that is listed in the path and it will work.
