php4 and mysql in 9.1 Pro, LAMP won't shine
I reckon I've just found out why I can't get the two to play, with any attempts to access databases giving invalid username/password or unable to acess the database. ----------------------------------------------- phpWebSite - Config File Creation Utility Unable to connect to your server's database. DB Error: connect failed Please reenter your settings. ----------------------------------------------- php-4.3.4, test.php says that php is configured --without-mysql, a strange decision as that rules out LAMP which just about every company using SuSE would require.

Can you access it with other means?

Yes, I forgot to add that I have full access to mysql from the command line and mysqlcc. I've filed a report with SuSE, I reckon it's simply that php4-4.3.4 from the distro is compiled with the configure option --without-mysql. php4-4.3.6 builds OK, but when checkinstall tries to build the rpm, it complains about apache2, the official sources for apache-2.0.49 build also complains about no being able to parse /etc/httpd-prefork.conf or something like that which didn't exist, so I copied httpd.conf.

It is _not_ compiled without mysql support. But it is built as a module, and doesn't show up in the configure options. Install php4-mysql. Peter

Thanks, it must be some other problem as I have php4-mysql-4.3.4-43.6 installed. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce .... Hamradio G3VBV and keen Flyer ===== LINUX ONLY USED HERE =====
Think this was discussed first few days of SUSE 9.1 release.. But I thought SuSE had patched this. Did you do the You updates? Jerry On Tue, 2004-06-29 at 15:01, poeml@cmdline.net wrote:

Okay, so you have updates installed which means your php4-mysql is functional, and you can access the database with other means (command line, mysqlcc). Though your PHP script will give you invalid password, according to what you wrote earlier:

Well, check your PHP script then. As well as you username/password. Are you aware that register_globalls defaults to off since php 4.2 or so? http://www.zend.com/zend/art/art-sweat4.php Peter
