[RESOLVED] Call to undefined function

akdkumar

Hi all
I encounter an error when trying to connect to MySQL database from PHP.

I have checked the web server log. It contains following error:

[Tue Feb 13 10:54:57 2007] [error] [client 172.16.16.50] PHP
Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect() in C:\Program
Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\index.php on line 5,
referer: http://172.16.16.50/

is my MySQL installation faulty? or is it a PHP problem?

Sounds like MySQL was not enabled in your PHP installation. See the [man]mysql[/man] page in the PHP manual for more info. You may want to run the following to get more info about your PHP installation:

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

Sounds like you're using PHP5. In PHP5, the MySQL module is no longer enabled by default - [man]MySQLi[/man] has taken its place.

Hi ALL

I have enabled the php_mysql.dll entry in php.ini.
I also corrected the "; Directory in which the loadable extensions
(modules) reside."
entry to 'extension_dir=./ext' .
Now the database connects.
Thanks.
