intl extension: installing php_intl.dll

I have XAMPP 1.8.3-0 and PHP 5.5.0 installed.

1) edit php.ini:

from

;extension=php_intl.dll

to

extension=php_intl.dll

Note: After modification, need to save the file(php.ini) as well as need to restart the Apache Server.

2) Simply copy all icu* * * *.dll files:

from

C:\xampp\php

to

C:\xampp\apache\bin

Then intl extension works!!!

The packages at http://windows.php.net/download/ all contain the php\_intl.dll which is located in the subdir ext/.
All you have to do is to check if your extension_dir points to the right directory and add (or uncomment) the extension=php\_intl.dll directive.

For the php_intl.dll extension to work correctly, you need to have the following files in a folder in your PATH:

• icudt36.dll
• icuin36.dll
• icuio36.dll
• icule36.dll
• iculx36.dll
• icutu36.dll
• icuuc36.dll

By default they're sitting in your PHP directory, but that directory isn't necessarily in your PATH (it wasn't for me, using xampp)

This has to be in your global path, not just your user's path. To set the global path, go to system info (windows key + PAUSE), then Advanced System Settings (Vista+) or Advanced (XP) and click the "Environment Variables" button and add the appropriate directory to the PATH variable in the System Variables list.

Had the same issue ... I found the files needed by searching my drive for icu**.dll and found the ones listed above but with 46 instead of 36 in the php folder. I copy pasted them to the apache/bin file and tried starting apache and it finally started. On the Server Checks page it has now changed from Yellow Check to Green OK. Hope this helps.
