Hi,

I'm trying to install wordpress on Linux Fedora 6 but it gives me this error everytime:

Your PHP installation appears to be missing the MySQL which is required for WordPress

I know for sure that its installed because I'm using phpmyadmin 2.11 and its working fine, and also I've install mediawiki and its working fine too.

This problem happened also with drupal.

I'm not sure why some web apps work fine and others give this error, can anyone please help in solving this issue?

Thank you,

    I'm assuming you're using PHP5? If so, see if there's a newer version of WordPress that utilizes the new MySQLi extension (or PDO, etc. etc.) since the MySQL extension is now deprecated and not enabled by default as of PHP5.

    If there isn't such a version... find a better application. :p
