Hi Folks I got a Problem to get MySql started under PHP. My configuration is:
OS: XP advanced server Webserver: IIS PHP Version: 5.0.4 MySQL Version: 4.1.12a PHP runs as server module Under myadminsql I got the following error message: [1.20] I receive the error "cannot load MySQL extension, please check PHP Configuration". To connect to a MySQL server, PHP needs a set of MySQL functions called "MySQL extension". This extension may be part of the PHP distribution (compiled-in), otherwise it needs to be loaded dynamically. Its name is probably mysql.so or php_mysql.dll. phpMyAdmin tried to load the extension but failed. Usually, the problem is solved by installing a software package called "PHP-MySQL" or something similar. If I use the following php script to test the connection to mysql. The script hung at: $db = @MYSQL_CONNECT($db_server,$db_user,$db_passwort) or die ("Cannot connect to database"); <?PHP error_reporting(1+2+4+8); /* Datenbankserver - In der Regel die IP */ $db_server = "localhost"; /* Datenbankname */ $db_name = "mysql"; /* Datenbankuser */ $db_user = "root"; /* Datenbankpasswort */ $db_passwort = "service"; /* Erstellt Connect zu Datenbank her */ $db = @MYSQL_CONNECT($db_server,$db_user,$db_passwort) or die ("Cannot connect to database"); if($db) echo "Verbindung zur Datenbank wurde hergestellt"; echo "<br>"; /* mysql_query("TRUNCATE TABLE 'bb2_shoutbox'"); /* Schliessen der Datenbank-Verbindung */ $db_close = @MYSQL_CLOSE($db); if($db_close) echo "Verbindung zur Datenbank geschlossen"; else echo "Konnte Verbindung zur Datenbank nicht schliessen"; ?> Best regards and thanks Manfred Fecke
