PDOException could not find driver on Zend Framework 2 + Doctrine

Question

I'm trying to install Zend Framework 2 + Doctrine from this manual and have some problem with PDO driver. Doctrine is trying to connect to my MySQL server and then trying to create schema:

./vendor/bin/doctrine-module orm:schema-tool:create

I have this error:

 [PDOException]
 could not find driver

This is my config/autoload/doctrine.local.php:

 return array(   'doctrine' => array(
     'connection' => array(
       'orm_default' => array(
         'driverClass' =>'Doctrine\DBAL\Driver\PDOMySql\Driver',
         'params' => array(
           'driver'   => 'pdo_mysql', 
           'host'     => 'localhost',
           'port'     => '3306',
           'user'     => 'root',
           'password' => 'password',
           'dbname'   => 'blog', 
 )))));

I have PHP 5.3.5 and i have uncommented ;extension=php_pdo_mysql.dll in php.ini, also it wasn't commented. But php -m | grep -i pdo gives me:

PDO

only. I'm know that it should be pdo_mysql too, but i'm trying everything and it isn't appear.

Anyway, PDO driver is works well at my another project on this server, where I'm not using Zend and Doctrine.

When doing php -m you should see both PDO and pdo_mysql. Since the last one is the adapter. If pdo_mysql isn't listed then the extension is not correctly activated. It's that easy :) — netiul
@netiul How I should activate extension correctly? There is no manual to install driver, it should be install by default on my server as i understand. — Vladimir Gusev

Ohh yes. I'm just solved a problem. I'm going to this page and thought to find my php.ini files anywhere else perhaps PHP folder - it was one more in "C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\wamp\bin\php\php5.3.5" and there row

;extension=php_pdo_mysql.dll

weren't uncomment. I'm uncommented it and it works!
