C:\php5 appears to be the default directory where PHP looks for
extensions.
On my system php -i returns:
extension_dir => C:\php5 => C:\php5
And I have no php.ini file. So it seems likely that PHP on your machine
is not finding your php.ini file.
The installation information that comes with PHP5 contains the
following:
"PHP searches for php.ini in the following locations (in
order):
* PHPIniDir directive (Apache 2 module only)
* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\PHP\IniFilePath
* The PHPRC environment variable
* Directory of PHP (for CLI), or the web server's directory (for
SAPI modules)
* Windows directory (C:\windows or C:\winnt)"
If I were you I'd set the registry key mentioned, or simply put php.ini
into the Windows directory.
