OK, sounds good, what am I looking for? I don't see the module being declared in my php.ini file on either of my servers.

It sounds like the MySQL extension module isn't loading. Here are some
things to confirm:
- Ensure the module is declared in your php.ini file
- If it exists in the php.ini, confirm the module is located and named
as stated in the php.ini file.
- If the module is named and located in the proper place, check your
permissions on that extension. You want to make sure whatever is running
your sight can access the module.
I hope this helps!

Subject: Yet another Call to Undefined Function help request
Hi all,
PLEASE, don't just toss the e-mail... I think I have a unique enough
situation to warrant this e-mail.
First, I have searched the mailing lists for the answer to my problem.
I have also tried to find the answer through the documentation, but have
been
unsuccessful. Mailing lists are always my last resort.
Here's the situation. I have an *old* Cobalt Raq appliance with Apache
1.3.20 and an older version of mysql on it. I have a customer that
wants to
use a database on his website, and rather than update this old,
unsupported appliance and possibly break something, or go through the
hassle of moving
this customer with 100+ e-mail addresses to a different server, we have
installed a new, dedicated mysql server to use system-wide for any of
our
customers, and ourselves, to use as a db server. This seemed like a
good idea at the time, and I think it will work well once we figure out
the bugs
here.
Now, everything was going swimmingly, until we tried to access the db
with php on a web page (which is where we got the call to undefined
function).
It was an old version of php, so I thought I'd upgrade, not as scary as
upgrading all three pieces of software. No resolution there. I
compiled it
with mysql support, but still get the undefined function error. Now, on
the new db server, phpinfo reports a whole section on mysql. On this
older
server, there is no mysql section in phpinfo. I can log in and access
the databases remotly from the Cobalt server using command line mysql; I
would
like to try this at cli using php but don't know how.
I am obviously missing something and I can't find the answer anywhere,
other than "reinstall apache, mysql, and php", which is kind of scary on
a
server this old that is running as well as it is. Not only that, but my
ego is kicking in here and I would really like to understand what the
problem
is rather than just reinstalling everything... That just seems too M$ to
me.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Alex
