Hi all, I'm Gene Candelaria and I'm a PHP and MySQL newbie. I have a feeling a lot of you have seen this before. I'm teaching myself PHP/MySQL trying to setup a guestbook. I'm running latest versions of Apache, PHP and MySql on my WIN2k machine. I have them working, except, I get the messages: "Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect() " "Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_pconnect() " when serving two of my php docs (code snippets below). I've been reading and searching and trying all sorts of things to fix this and nothing works. I've removed the comment from the line "extension=php_mysql.dll" in php.ini. (Below is the MySQL section of php.ini. It's pretty standard, I'm using defaults.) I edited my Apache config file with the needed lines: ### Section 4: PHP 5 Module # ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/cgi-bin/" LoadModule php5_module php/php5apache2.dll AddType application/x-httpd-php .php AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps PHPIniDir "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/PHP" When I run my test.php doc, MySQL is not listed. Do I need to enable it in the configure command? How do I edit the configure command. Per my test.php, It now reads: Configure Command cscript /nologo configure.js "--with-gd=shared" "--enable-snapshot-build" Online I read these comments: Ok, your php.ini file is set to 'on' for mysql.allow_persistent, but is mysql really enabled? Does your configure command look something like this? './configure' '--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql' ............................................ If you don't have --with-mysql it means that you cannot use mysql functions, so compile PHP again with this option. How do I edit that pesky configure command. I searched, but couldn't find an answer. So, where am I going wrong? Thanks for reading and big thanks for any help. gene sunishun@xxxxxxxxxxx php.ini snippet (comments removed for easier reading: [MySQL] mysql.allow_persistent = On mysql.max_persistent = -1 mysql.max_links = -1 mysql.default_port = mysql.default_socket = mysql.default_host = mysql.default_user = mysql.default_password = mysql.connect_timeout = 60 mysql.trace_mode = Off guest.php code snippet: //connect // change localhost to your db host name mysql_pconnect( "http://aulon.dyndns.org/";, "$username", "$password") or die( "Unable to connect to SQL server"); mysql_select_db( "$db_name") or die( "Unable to select database"); guestbook.php code snippet: // Connect to DB $li = mysql_connect($dbHost, $dbUser, $dbPass) or die("Could not connect"); mysql_select_db($dbDatabase, $li) or die ("could not select DB"); -- PHP Windows Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
