1) The manual page given in the plugin docs is exactly what you need to read for examples of how to build the correct DSN. You said it "provides no insight", which is preposterous. I told you to read it again for good reason. But to be nice, I also handed you the answer you needed. The only BS is that you refused to read documentation carefully and instead choose to waste precious time of people helping you for free. 2) Your post only described problems YOU were having understanding how to figure out your DSN. If you don't have the right DSN, *of course* you will have errors, but that is because YOU haven't configured it correctly. Your subject line implies otherwise and is annoying. Please read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html#id3001405 http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html#bespecific http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html#keepcool There are in fact some bugs in that release, but you have not found them. > Next, as for claiming there are errors, well, let's see, I ran that > plugin and had errors, so what would you have like the subject post to > be!!

Anway, config right or wrong, this No, "config right or wrong" is not correct. The exact point is that the config is wrong. The error is yours (and you didn't even include the error in your first post - you also need to read the following link (which was already sent to you when you signed up for the list) before posting again). http://www.squirrelmail.org/wiki/MailingListPostingGuidelines > list is for a community of 'newbies' and pro's that wish one thing, to > help or get help, not to be told to go read it again! Please show the web page where it says that newbies should come ask for someone to hold their hand free of charge, not even having done their homework. You are being inconsiderate if you do not respect the time of the people helping you. http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html#not_losing > This is a mysql ver 4.1.12 and PHP 4.x where that pear connection showed > you need PHP 5. mysql will work just find for you. You do not need mysqli nor do you need PHP5.
