I have found the following in the MySQl web site

Error: "Fatal error: Call to unsupported or undefined function
mysql_connect() in .." This means that your PHP version isn't compiled with
MySQL support. You can either compile a dynamic MySQL module and load it
into PHP or recompile PHP with built-in MySQL support. This is described in
detail in the PHP manual. 

Does anyone know where in the PHP manual this can be found?

Subject: [PHP-WIN] installing on Unix....


I have successfully installed php4 on windows all works fine. 
I have been using this version and uploading the results to a (pre
installed) unix server with php3 installed.

But the time has come to upgrade the server with the PHP4 etc....

So for testing purposes a test server was installed with the same set up as
the current server (php3, mysql etc), from this I want to update the php
version
What I have noticed is that while PHP4 is working fine without problems
my_sql isn't!!

I keep getting the error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mysql_pconnect() in
../include/db_mysql.inc on line 73


I have noticed that in the php3.ini the extension directory and mysql.so is
set (as shown below)

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; Paths and Directories ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
extension_dir   =       /usr/lib/php3/cgi               ;directory in which
the loadable extensions (modules) reside

;unix extension
extension=mysql.so


So I try using the same directory but still no luck!

Anybody know how to enable the My_sql function for php4 on a UNix system?

Thanks.
