Re: Error connecting to MySQL with PHP4

Check phpinfo() and see if the configure line has --without-mysql in it. It probably does. You have 2 options, recompile PHP (no need to recompile Apache since PHP is a DSO (dynamic shared object) loaded into Apache when it starts). Or second, build just the MySQL extension using: --with-mysql=shared and load that into your PHP script at startup by doing dl('mysql.so'); in your script or add extension=mysql.so to your php.ini file. -Rasmus
