PHP mysql extenstion...

[dsartain]

I installed php and mysql when I installed Fedora Core 6, and I thought I had included the mysql option for php, but it's not connecting.  Can someone point me in the right direction??  I can't find a mysql.so file in php.d, and there is no ext directory in php.d either

 

Here's some of the php.ini file...

 

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

; Paths and Directories ;

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

 

; UNIX: "/path1:/path2"

;include_path = ".:/php/includes"

 

; Directory in which the loadable extensions (modules) reside.

extension_dir = "/usr/lib/php/modules"

 

; If you wish to have an extension loaded automatically, use the following

; syntax:

;

;  extension=modulename.extension

;

; For example:

;

;  extension=msql.so

;

; Note that it should be the name of the module only; no directory information

; needs to go here.  Specify the location of the extension with the

; extension_dir directive above.

 

 

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

; Dynamic Extensions ;

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

 

;;;;

; Note: packaged extension modules are now loaded via the .ini files

; found in the directory /etc/php.d; these are loaded by default.

there is an ldap.ini file in php.d, but no mysql.ini....

What steps did you take to install php?

As I said, I installed it when I installed FC 6, so I have no idea what it did beyond that...but I found a php-mysql.rpm package and installed that, so now I'm good to go.

 

One other question, anyone know where to find a php-gd2 package??
