Hello, I have encountered the problem with running MySQL Server 5.0 with PHP 5 and Apache2 on Windows XP. Everrything seems to be ok, so Apacheh is running, also together with php. If I run php -m it shows the library for MySQL is included. Even if I run php.exe -f index.php it run in console. But as for web browser it shows error: PHP is running Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect() in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\index.php on line 6 As for the php.ini file the lines regarding this are: extension_dir="C:\php\ext\" ... extension=php_mysql.dll Please if someone knows where did I go wrong let me know. Thanks a lot for any hints.

Do you have MySQL running on windows? Are you sure you have php_mysql.dll and not php_mysqli.dll loaded. They have different commands. What shows in phpinfo against mysql? Just a few ideas - I don't use mysql myself but most of the same rules apply to ever database engine ;) -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/lsces/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk// Firebird - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php
