RE: [cobalt-developers] php with mysql support (qube3)

["Mike Jaffrey" <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for your help Peter!

have decided to go for a recompile with support for mysql.  My qube is fully
up to date but it seems that there was no mysql support when first compiled
(little odd but hey).  If it doesn't work after this I think I'll go for the
Quake 3 Server option. databases are good for business but games are more
fun :-)

thanks

OK. Since both PHP and MySQL are up and running, your configuration files
seem to be in order. When executing a script then, it should return a error
message. If not, the connection could be in silent mode. Try connecting to
mysql with mysql_connect($hostname, $user, $password); if you are using
variables or mysql_connect('localhost', 'root', 'password'); if you are
using textstrings.
The same goes for the connection to the database:
mysql_select_db($database); or mysql_select_db('databasename');

If this doesn't work you would want to know if php was compiled or installed
by means of a .pkg provided by Cobalt. When compiled the reason for your
problem may well be that php was compiled without mysql support. Compiling
with support for mysql is done with the following
flagsyntaxis: --with-mysql[=DIR] where DIR is only necessary if it's not the
standard directory /usr/local

Other steps to take: is the box up to date - check
http://emea.cobalt.com/support/download/qube3.eng.html? What are your
current versions of MySQL and PHP - check http://pkg.nl.cobalt.com/packages/
for updates if applicable.

Hope this can help you.

Peter

Did you uncomment the line extension=mysql.so in the file php.ini
(/etc/httpd)?

does any body know how I can compile php with mysql support on a qube3?

both are already installed and working but php will not talk to mysql when a
script is run.

I know there is a work around with a few lines of php at the beginning of
each script or you can make a dynamic mysql mod. but I need to have the two
compiled together.

Do I need to unistall then recompile everything? if so where do I find the
pkg's?

help :-(
