RH7.3 Apache 1.3x PHP4.1x I'm trying to install PHPMyAdmin 2.5.3
PHPMyAdmin fails to load with: ---- cannot load MySQL extension, please check PHP Configuration. ---- [1.20] "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 server (compiled-in), otherwise it needs to be loaded dynamically. Its name is probably mysql.so or mysql.dll. phpMyAdmin tried to load the extension but failed. ----- PHP docs says that As of PHP 4, --with-mysql is enabled by default so to disable MySQL support you must use --without-mysql. phpinfo says I have: --- PHP Version 4.1.2 System Linux daffy.perf.redhat.com 2.4.18-11smp #1 SMP Thu Aug 15 06:41:59 EDT 2002 i686 unknown Build Date Sep 26 2002 Configure Command ..... --with-mysql=shared, ... and dbx dbx support enabled dbx version 1.0.0 supported databases MySQL<br />ODBC<br />PostgreSQL<br />Microsoft SQL Server<br />FrontBase --- there is NO other MySQL related stuff in phpinfo php.ini has ..

(but these settings are NOT reported by phpinfo ) what have I overlooked ? Voytek Eymont -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
