mysql_connect()

I have php and mysql running on a apache server. when i try to mysql_connect() i get this error.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mysql_connect() in /home/apache/htdocs/temp/index.php on line 2

I think that it is some kind of config problem or that php can't find the mysql lib or something like that. but i can't figure it out.

Here is my code

<?
mysql_connect("server", "root", "password");
?>

I used to have a query and some other useful things but when i relized i wasn't even connecting i reduced my code to this ingle line for testing.

Thank you

phpinfo(); may shed some light on your configuration.

I went through phpinfo(); and the php.ini but i was unable to find any information one way or another.

when you read through phpinfo(); did you see anything that said mysql on it? anywhere?

"Call to undefined function: mysql_connect()"

in short: your PHP does not support mysql at all.

Read the docs about how you can add this support to PHP (if you can re-install PHP there, otherwise you'll have to contact your system admin)

Thanks for the help! I found the info on php.net and successfully recompiled php this time running mysql.

Good work!
