Re: Mysql 5.0 Redhat

You need to compile PHP with MySQL support. There is a php-mysql.rpm package, but I'm not sure if it will work with MySQL 5. You might just have to recompile PHP (but probably not). Cole Iain Wiseman wrote:

Hi, Sure this has been asked but I want to use the new mysql 5.0 rather than downgrade and I want to use a package installer so I can take it off if it does not work. Are there rpms for Redhat 9.0 to enable PHP to work with MySql 5.0 I am assumming (and maybe incorrectly) that this is my problem for Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mysql_connect() in /var/www/html/guestbook/guest.config.php on line 14 Thanks Iain

I have dowloaded and installed MySQL-shared-5.0.0-0 MySQL-server-5.0.0-0 MySQL-client-5.0.0-0 MySQL-devel-5.0.0-0 However I still get the error. I seems pretty common when I put it into google. There used to be a package call php-mysql-4.2.2-17.i386.rpm that seemed to do the neccesaries for PHP. Added a mysql.ini and put a library mysql.so into the php extension directory. What does this for 5.0? And what steps do I need to do to analyze the error. Obviously I can connect to my database from the command prompt. Thanks Iain
