I am using SegueLink and MySQL. The connection test is fine, so I am reasonably sure that the RaQ server can find the M$ Access database. The problem is that the odbc_connect command is not being recognized. I think that I need to recompile php with --with-odbc as part of the configuration. However, I do not know what else is need to compile php for the Cobalt RaQ4 servers. I read the documentation from php.net and it indicates to do these three steps: 10. ./configure --with-mysql --with-apxs=/www/bin/apxs 11. make 12. make install I think I only need to add --with-odbc after the --with-mysql. However, can I simply recompile php? Or do I need to uninstall it and recompile it? -- Keith Roberts IT Manager Laptops For Less 2995 White Star Anaheim, CA 92806 (714) 224 - 3980 http://www.laptopsforless.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Andrew Brampton" <andrew@bramp.freeserve.co.uk> To: "Keith Roberts" <keith@getadeal.com>; <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Wednesday, August 07, 2002 12:54 PM Subject: Re: [PHP] Fatal error: Call to undefined function: odbc_connect() > As far as I know the linux PHP can't connect to a Windows M$ Access > database... > I think you either need to use PHP under windows, or find some linux ODBC > driver, OR use MySQL :) > > Someone tell me if I'm wrong on this, thanks > Andrew > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Keith Roberts" <keith@getadeal.com> > To: "php-general @ lists.php.net" <php-general@lists.php.net> > Sent: Wednesday, August 07, 2002 8:45 PM > Subject: [PHP] Fatal error: Call to undefined function: odbc_connect() > > > > I am getting this error when trying to connect to a MS Access database.
