PHP Startup Unable to load dynamic library /usr/lib/php/20151012/php_mysqli.dll

Question

I have ubuntu 14.04 EC2 instance. I have installed php 7 on it. when I execute any php command like php --version or any other. I get following error

PHP War         


        

Answer 1

In php.ini under Dynamic Extensions the line extension=php_mysqli.dll was enabled.

I disabled it by adding a semi-colon at the head of the line ;extension=php_mysqli.dll.

Saved and exited php.ini. Restarted Apache.

This resolved the error for me.

Answer 2

Run Phpinfo() Search for your php.ini path

search extension=php_mysqli.so

comment like this

;extension=php_mysqli.so

Answer 3

Just comment out all lines with .dll extensions because you are on Ubuntu. Ubuntu support .so files.
