Dear,

I have installed Apache 2.4 on windows, also PHP 8.3.2, every thing is going well except connection with MySQLi.

My code as follow

<?php

// Connection parameters

$serverName = "localhost";

$dbUserName = "root";

$dbPassword = "password";

$database = "dbname";

// Create connection   $conn = new mysqli($serverName, $dbUserName, $dbPassword, $database);

// Check connection

if (!$conn) {

   die("Connection Failed: " .mysqli_connect_error());

}

However it gives me error as follow:

"Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class "mysqli" not found in C:\Apache24\htdocs\01 PHP_Traning\mySQL_01\includes\dbh_custom_inc.php:11 Stack trace: #0 {main} thrown in C:\Apache24\htdocs\01 PHP_Traning\mySQL_01\includes\dbh_custom_inc.php on line 11"

Note:

The same code works in another computers.

Best Regards,

Hi Ahmed,

Looking at the folder path, I am assuming you are training. All the best with that!

Coming to the issue, it seems the mysqli extension is not enabled. 

Enable php_mysqli.dll in php.ini.
