How to Enable the Mysqli Extension in PHP 7

How can I enable the MySQLi extension in PHP 7?

I got the solution. I am able to enable MySQLi extension in php.ini. I just uncommented this line in php.ini:

extension=php_mysqli.dll

Now MySQLi is working well. Here is the php.ini file path in an Apache 2, PHP 7, and Ubuntu 14.04 environment:

/etc/php/7.0/apache2/php.ini

By default, the MySQLi extension is disabled in PHP 7.

I solved the issue, it was a silly mistake. The extension_dir was not set. I set it to extension_dir = "C:\php7\ext" and its working fine.

Have you declare it to php.ini to load it? If no, try find this in php.ini and add php_mysqli.dll

; If you wish to have an extension loaded automatically, use the following
; syntax:
;
;   extension=modulename.extension
;
; For example, on Windows:
;
;   extension=msql.dll
;
; ... or under UNIX:
;
;   extension=msql.so
;
; ... or with a path:
;
;   extension=/path/to/extension/msql.so
;
; If you only provide the name of the extension, PHP will look for it in its
; default extension directory.

; Note that many DLL files are located in the extensions/ (PHP 4) ext/ (PHP 5)
; extension folders as well as the separate PECL DLL download (PHP 5).
; Be sure to appropriately set the extension_dir directive.
