I had some similar problems getting the postgre library to become
available to PHP. The issue I was having was that I didn't realise
the order of which the server will look for the php.ini file (I
thought it was simply looking in the PATH directories), such as the
list I will provide for future reference:
1.PHPIniDir directive (Apache 2 module only)
2.HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\PHP\IniFilePath
3. The PHPRC environment variable
4. Directory of PHP (for CLI), or the web server's directory (for
SAPI modules)
5. Windows directory (C:\windows or C:\winnt)
My problem was that Apache was set to look in a directory that
contained a completly default php.ini file.
