Re: [PHP-DB] PHP5.0, MySQL4.1, Apache2 on WinXP

PHP 5.0 doesn't come with mysql support... You have to get the libraries
yourself... I think u can get them from mysql.com
php_mysql is in the extensions directory of the latest 
downloads, just uncomment it in the php.ini file.

Might have to pay? I haven't totally figure out the implications of the
no mysql in PHP 5.0 yet, but I know its not there.
No charge for it in PHP, it's the changes to the mysql 
licence that cause the problem. Mysql is not necessarily 
free for commercial use, and THAT aspect is now being 
pressed by mysql.

Try Firebird - works great with PHP, and many of the add on 
database packages, and is totally free. www.firebirdsql.org

Subject: [PHP-DB] PHP5.0, MySQL4.1, Apache2 on WinXP


I am having the hardest time getting PHP to install it's MySQL dll
handlers, even tho it's supposed to be embedded, it refuses to do
anything with MySQL.

(Constant "PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined function:
mysql_connect() in C:\apache\Apache2\htdocs\example\index.php3 on line
8" killing the test
script)

I am kinda new to the php language, but I know I have it coded right in
the file I am using, any clues on where/how I can get the MySQL PHP dlls
to work right in this situation?

oh, PHP works fine otherwise, as does apache and mysql in any other
respects.

the by-hand-install directions in the install.txt that came with php5
have been followed and double checked multiple times.

Thanks for any help I can get,
-Kai
