Bye normally I would agree with franciccio's remark (and I can't be too hard on him either cos he gave me a good explaination on JOIN stuff just yesterday!) BUT women deverse preferential treatment in this environment. here is why: rant a, IT is a 'male' (read: autistic ;-) social culture - why expect women to fit right in when they have different (read: higher ;-) social skills (in general). b, there are not enough of them in IT let alone the PHP world. c, they might be good looking and live round the corner from you ;-). the more women in IT the better it is for all of us - it gives us more social power as a group and makes us more balanced + you'll often find women have novel/new ways of looking at problems that a male mindset is less likely to consider. women/girls deserve a little more leaway when entering this little world. if only because men have been jacking them around for the last 5000 years - which has only brought us war religion ;-) /rant oh hang on - Eve did pretty much everything right in writing up her question to the list (setup details, context, explaination of things tried, consiseness etc etc) the only thing she may have done wrong is in the choice of list (possible php-general or php-install could have been a better choice). so thats another reason to cut her some slack. -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

women/girls deserve a little more leaway when entering this little world. if only because men have been jacking them around for the last 5000 years - which has only brought us war religion ;-) ROTFL!! Too funny. :) I got the issue somewhat resolved. I was being a slacker and wanted to administer MySQL with phpmyadmin, and I thought it would be an easy fix, but I opted for the command line eventually. While phpmyadmin still doesn't work despite mysql.so existing on my system (Mysql.so was Outlook insisting on proper capitalization), I got everything else working, in this particular case MySQL, via the command line. And I posted here, assuming it was linked between PHP and MySQL, being that phpmyadmin is written in PHP and works off MySQL. Does not appear to be the case however!

Too funny. :) thanks. :-) I got the issue somewhat resolved. I was being a slacker and wanted to administer MySQL with phpmyadmin, and I thought it would be an easy fix, but your not using MySQL in combination with php (other than the attempt to run phpmyadmin)? I opted for the command line eventually. While phpmyadmin still doesn't work despite mysql.so existing on my system (Mysql.so was Outlook insisting on proper capitalization), I got everything else working, in this particular case MySQL, via the command line. You said your using RedHat, do you have a choice in that?, are you okay with linux? Give SuSE a shot - as a distro is much better, german engineering and that and its got the backing, now that Novell has taken over shop (Novell of IT excellence, as opposed the marketing finesse of RedHat). for a little more extreme try Debian - if you can handle using a bash shell you will find it joyful, its start off with `aptget`, a few configures, make, make installs, zoom. Im no expert but I can setup servers ok, I just FTFM and it takes me a while :-) and lately Ive been setting up a fairly complex php webshop/site/cms type thing for a company that insists on redhat server bla bla bla edition - and its a nightmare - try setting up php5/firebird1.5/apache argh - well the guy that set it up said argh and next to me he's an honest to god wizard! they have it set so that technically you have to login to a website of redhat and the site logs into your machine and finds out whats installed, which it then reports back to you on the site. WTF!!! its pure madness. a man obviously thought this up. straight up. in my world: 1. RedHat - like treading in something brown and steaming. 2. SuSE - like driving in a Mercedes, but not always a brandnew one. 3. Debian - spaceship (or more precisely: The Tardis). which would you choose? just MHO And I posted here, assuming it was linked between PHP and MySQL, being that phpmyadmin is written in PHP and works off MySQL. Does not appear to be the case however! I didn't quite get it either! Thanks, Eve -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP-DB] RE: Cannot load MySQL extension (mysql.so issues)
As an addendum to this, extension=msyql.so ...is enabled in /etc/php.d/mysql.ini, which the php config states from which Redhat loads its extensions. I've also tried: extension=/usr/lib/php4/mysql.so ...to no avail. - Eve -Original Message- From: Eve Atley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 20, 2005 1:29 PM To: 'php-db@lists.php.net' Subject: Cannot load MySQL extension (mysql.so issues) Platform: Redhat Linux Enterprise WS 3 PHP installed: 4.3.2 MySQL installed: 4.0.21 Apache installed: 2.0.46 When setting up PhpMyAdmin today, I got the error: Cannot load mysql extension, Please check PHP configuration My phpinfo() shows: 'with-mysql=shared,/usr' (yes, the comma is not a mistake) - This looks like a glitch; should I fix, and if so where?
