Hi
Any experts on this out there?
I have set up a mysql database running
on a server. The database is loadable and
can be interacted with via mysql client using a telnet session.
A basic php script running on the httpd server
<?php
phpinfo()
?>
returns a result suggesting mysql is supported ..under the dbx subheading of the return ..
but if I run the "mysql_connect" command the web page shows
a error saying that this function (mysql_connect()) is not supported .. I cannot work out why not.
Secondly I would ideally have liked to create the database as non root .. but seem to only be allowed to do it as root.
Other users can readily access it.
The os is rh9. Oddly, setting this up locally on my laptop
there is no problem in running mysql_connect despite
the installation being essentially identical (although I did use mysql rpm binaries to set up mysql).
Any thought appreciated
