dba_open() is not a valid function?

[searain]

I got this error, dba_open() is not a valid defined function?

Are these DBA functions built in?

Do I need to do something to make it work?

Thanks!!!

think you'll need to uncomment the dba line out in php.ini

[searain]

in php.ini

i saw this

;Windows Extensions
;Note that MySQL and ODBC support is now built in, so no dll is needed for it.
;
;extension=php_cpdf.dll
;extension=php_cybercash.dll
;extension=php_db.dll
;extension=php_dbase.dll

but these are for windows entension. and i am on linux and i didn't see any line i should comment out regarding this issue in the php.ini.

please help.

maybe the few lines above should help then:

; If you wish to have an extension loaded automatically, use the following
; syntax:
;
; extension=modulename.extension
;
; For example, on Windows:
;
; extension=msql.dll
;
; ... or under UNIX:
;
; extension=msql.so

so i presume you can just change the dll extension to so and it'll be fine
