PFMaBiSmAd Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 PHP uses a mysql client library to communicate with the mysql server. Under Windows, this is the php_mysql.dll file (and a couple of aux .dll files.) Under Unix, I don't know the specifics. The client library that php uses to communicate with mysql is determined at the time php is complied. You will either need to compile php yourself or upgrade your php version to one that includes a later mysql client.
