Trouble is, an article I could write will be from an apache point-of-view, and will tell you you need the driver for your chosen database (in this case, mysql) to be available and installed in the right place. But how to do that will depend on your package manager: it will involve something like package-manager install apr_dbd_mysql which is fine for readers who can translate that to what works on their system, but probably leave others none-the-wiser. > Mysql is installed and works perfectly well. Yep. That's a prerequisite for apr_dbd_mysql. > I solved it using PHP to check if there is a valid session for the user > instead.

If it's already a PHP+mysql application then that's a perfectly good solution (likely suboptimal if php isn't using apr_dbd, but that's a different question). If not then it's a horrible solution! -- Nick Kew --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
