Roster installer cannot find MySQL module

by **anais** » Fri Jul 14, 2006 1:41 pm

I'm trying to get a local test setup going on my laptop and am using IIS 5.0 with PHP5 (freshly installed) and MySQL 4 (no 5 because the provider we use still uses 4). MySQL 's been freshly installed with both a root user with password and an anonymous user - instance listen on port 3306.

Using the MySQL administrator utility I can connect to the database with no problems whatsoever - I've setup a seperate database for the roster already and created a user so that's all working as expected.

When I open the install.php file however, it says the MySQL module could not be found. Any ideas/clues?

Yeah, php can't see mysql

In php 5, you have to specifically tell it that it can use mysql
