Assigned to the installer maintainer.

That's another interesting problem and frankly I don't expect the path
to be missing for seemingly no reason. I'll keep my eyes open for that
and see if it does the trick. Thanks for the research though I'm still
of the opinion that this shouldn't be required ;)

It gets weirder for me.
I experienced tons of problems with the installer, so scrapped that
(did uninstall) and installed manually via .zip which was easy enough. I
ONLY enabled mysql, and amazingly enough, it worked!. I ran a simple
test:
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
which reported mysql as enabled; and I was subsequently able to install
PHP shopping cart software. So far, so good...
Now for the fun part: after rebooting the machine, mysql is being
reported as not enabled anymore, so I checked the apache log and sure
enough, I see the same cryptic error as others have reported here:
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library
'c:/php52/etx\\php_mysql.dll' - The specified module could not be found.
\r\n in Unknown on line 0.
And now of course phpinfo() shows mysql indeed is missing
I thought perhaps the reference to '\r\n' had something to do with
windows linefeeds, so I ran a dos2unix conversion on the php.ini file --
no go. Still the same problem.
For fun, I tried disabling mysql and enabling a different module.
Doesn't seem to matter, get the same problem with any and all.
As others have already noted, this is extremely frustrating -- and
atypical. I am also a very long-time PHP user and have not ever
experienced this level of difficulty with basic PHP
installation/configuration.

During the installer you must have selected to install every extension
onto the hard disk, this in turn would have enabled all of those
extensions some of which don't work.
I'm under the impression that the extension maintainer removed the ones
that were broken, but one can still shoot themselves in the foot by
enabling everything.
Uninstall PHP and then re-install, when you do make sure you only
enable the modules that you need.

Nevermind, just found out that my php.ini went from c:\Windows inside a
subdirectory - please don't ask me how! ;)
