Re: Bug #1397: mysql function not working

It seems like it would be worth some effort to make the error messages a bit more robust... i.e., for this error, add in a note saying "This error is most likely because the function you're using is in a library that you haven't included. Go edit php.ini, etc. etc." :) My only complaint about PHP is that the error messages are more cryptic than necessary. I would do something, but with PHP4 around the corner... This is a bigger barrier to entry than most people think, and I'd love to help to make the obvious errors more obvious. > From: alexei_v@yahoo.com > Operating system: windows 95 > PHP version: 3.0.6 > PHP Bug Type: MySQL related > Bug description: mysql function not working > > this is what i get for any function using mysql: > > Fatal error: Call to unsupported or undefined function mysql_connect() in C:\WebShare\wwwroot\s.php3 on line 3 > > I use Personal Web Server and MySQL Ver 3.21.29a for Win95 > mysql is working fine > > > > > -- > PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ > To unsubscribe send an empty message to php-dev-unsubscribe@lists.php.net > For help: php-dev-help@lists.php.net > > -- PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe send an empty message to php-dev-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For help: php-dev-help@lists.php.net
