I know this is probably the noobiest of questions but please help.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect() in
... on line 112

This occurs when I try to access a MySQL application, specifically Invision
Power Boards.

I have PHP5 installed on my Apache 1.3.31, and I believe that my MySQL is
MySQL4, all this on Windows XP personal.

My php.ini file is in my systemroot (C:/windows). Currently I have no loaded
extensions for MySQL/php connections stuff (ex: php_mysql.dll,
php_mysqli.dll). I tried some stuff I found on help boards but everything
just got all messed
up, so I thought I'd get more official help.

I have all of the php .DLL files that came with the zip file in
C:/windows/system32. PHP-mysql.DLL and php_mysqli.dll are in both system32
and just
c:/windows.

When I run phpinfo() I get no mention of MySQL. MySQL itself connects to the
MySQL server just fine. I think that's everything.

Thanks in advance.

Gotta recompile php with the --with-mysql option (or something like that).

Try running configure --help

You can see what options you compiled with by grepping for CONFIGURE in your
Makefile. Here's what I got:

root@dragonfly php-5.0.0b4 # grep CONFIGURE Makefile
CONFIGURE_COMMAND = './configure' '--with-mysql'
'--with-apxs2=/usr/sbin/apxs2' '--with-zlib' '--with-xsl' '--with-imap-ssl'

Dude, I need to update!

Oh, you're using windows.

To use an extension, set it up as follows.

1.. Open the PHP.INI file and locate the following line.
extension_dir = ./

This line indicates the folder where the PHP extension DLL files are
located. Edit this line to:

extension_dir = C:\php\extensions

2.. Select from the PHP extension choices. Note that some of these files
depend on other software to work correctly (such as the Oracle 8 extension).
Consult the PHP documentation to see what additional software (if any) is
required.

3.. See an example for loading an extension in the following commented out
line:

;extension=php_zip.dll

Uncomment the line, as follows:

extension=php_zip.dll

4.. Save your changes.

5.. Browse the PHP test page in your browser. The following appears:


Also make sure phpinfo is showing the right php.ini file that you expect it
to be.
