First look at your PHP version, PHP will no longer support the connection to SQL Server after 5.3, so it is necessary for MS to provide a third - party extension
Note: Although the Php_mssql.dll method provided by php5.2 is capable of connecting to a SQL Server Database (this connection is self-checking, online or more), it is only limited to SQL Server 2000. So if you need to connect to 2005 or more than 2008 versions, you still need to download the MS extension
ms extension download
Https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc296170.aspx
When downloading, pay attention to choose the corresponding PHP version number ( This is explained on the page )
Install the release program after download (the installation address to php.ini in the Extension_dir =), some of the following files are similar to:
Php_pdo_sqlsrv_52_nts.dll
Php_pdo_sqlsrv_52_ts.dll(for PHP 5.2.x version thread safe)
Php_sqlsrv_52_nts.dll
Php_sqlsrv_52_ts.dll(for PHP 5.2.x version thread safe)
Sqlserverdriverforphp.chm (Manual, English is good enough, can see)
Sqlserverdriverforphp_license.rtf

About the difference between VC6 and VC9
the VC6 version is compiled with the Visual Studio 6 compiler, and if you are using apache+php under Windows, select the VC6 version.
the VC9 version is compiled with the Visual Studio 2008 compiler, and if you are using iis+php under Windows , select the VC9 version.
Start configuration
1. Add the following php.ini Windows extensions:
Extension=php_sqlsrv_53_ts.dll (whichever file name you choose)
Extension=php_pdo_sqlsrv_53_ts.dll
2. Re-start Apache service.
Finally test whether the success, in PHP to perform phpinfo () view sqlsrv, look at the picture Red line, so that the connection is successful!!
Use the following code to test whether the connection was successful
<?php
$serverName = "(localhost)";
$connectionInfo = Array ("Database" = "test", "connectionpooling" =>false);
$conn = Sqlsrv_connect ($serverName, $connectionInfo);
if ($conn = = False)
{
echo "Connection failed! ";
die (Print_r (Sqlsrv_errors (), true) );
}
?>
In general, the operation will Error!
Reason: missing driver

In the page so a paragraph of words
My English slag, the general meaning is
Version 3.2 or 3.1 is required to download Microsoft ODBC Driver One-to-one for SQL Server.
3.0 version download SQL Server Feature Pack page.
Version 2.0 needs to be downloaded by the number of system bits:
Download the X86 Package
Download the X64 Package
After the download installation is complete, the OK program can be run.
