You are probably missing something like this in the apache httpd.conf: LoadModule php5_module "c:/PHP/php5apache2_2.dll" PHPIniDir "c:/PHP/php.ini" AddType application/x-httpd-php .php DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.html.var Regards, Jonathan On Fri, Nov 27, 2009 at 6:24 AM, Julian Muscat Doublesin <opensourcekb@gmail.com> wrote:

Can anyone please advise. Thank you very much in advance. Julian

It sounds like you've installed both PHP and MySQL, but not the php-mysql module, which allows PHP to talk to the database. Depending on how you installed PHP, there could be a variety of ways to fix this. Thanks, Ash http://www.ashleysheridan.co.uk

Try opening the php.ini file and uncommenting the line ;extension = php_mysql.dll; (by uncommenting i mean remove the first semi-colon). save the file and restart the apache service

My guess is, that since he said that he is getting an error returned from the function call, that the function is being loaded, so the php_mysql.so is being loaded fine. But the problem, more then likely, lies with the arguments being passed to the mysql_connect function call itself. Check the values that you are passing to your function. But first, make sure that mysql is actually running. You should be able to use phpmyadmin, with the correct DB settings, and have it connect to the DB. If that doesn't work, try using a command line utility that came with your mysql installation.
