I don't know what postnuke is, but have you tried accessing the database just from a simple php script? Have you got the right permissions in that directory? Does it rely on global variables and you have them turned off? Just a guess... It looks like you built it correctly... did you use every option? :P Perhaps you are having some issues with the function mysql_connect()? Could you replace it with mysql_pconnect or something? Have a look at some of the issues here: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-connect.php Number one was: mysql_connect jlambert at lambert-comm dot net 18-Aug-2000 11:24 With PHP Version 4.0.1pl2 if you have sql.safe_mode set to on, you will not be able to declare a hostname, username or password. Your username is set to the current user id of the PHP engine. Good luck... Dan.

I just tried it, but I get the same error. See: http://site.deragon.biz/phpmysql.php The code behind this php file is: <?php

    $link = mysql_connect("localhost", "mysql_user", "mysql_password")
        or die("Could not connect: " . mysql_error());
    print ("Connected successfully");
    mysql_close($link);

?> It cannot be a connection problem. Php is not complaining about any networking or authentification problem. It complains that the function does not even exist! That is what puzzle me.
