yii could not find driver

哪些开起来挺简单的东西，真正做起来就未必是看起来的样子了。比如作为一个javaer的我，开始写php代码的时候就掉到了这么一个小坑了，与大家共享

yii框架导入到phpstorm中

config/db.php

<pre><?php

return [
    'class' => 'yii\db\Connection',
    'dsn' => 'mysql:host=localhost;dbname=yii',
    'username' => 'root',
    'password' => '',
    'charset' => 'utf8'

];</pre>

根据官方手册感觉写完model，写完controller就可以万事大吉，愉快的访问程序了，但天不遂人愿，报了个大大的错误（大脸状）

php还没入门的我，只好借助度娘

原来php在连接数据库的时候还需要打开特定的扩展，就好比java中要导入特定数据库的驱动包一样。原因找到了，动手解决之。

打开php.ini,搜索extension=php_pdo_mysql.dll，将前面的注释打开即可。

另，搜索过程中有些结果还需要打开extension=php_pdo.dll，但是我正在使用php5.6.26版本中并未发现此扩展。
