[SOLVED] You must have the MySQL PHP module installed

It's the mysql module for your Apache ... read out more on Apache homepage (http://www.apache.org/) or your operating system homepage for installation packages.

Thats what I thought I did --

When I configured php I ran this --

./configure \
--enable-magic-quotes \
--with-gd \
--with-gettext \
--with-mysql

then make and install.

I tried to even specify the path to mysql --

./configure \
--enable-magic-quotes \
--with-gettext \
--with-mysql-dir=/var/lib/mysql

and still not working.

My php.ini says -- "Note that MySQL and ODBC support is now built in, so no dll is needed for it."

Its proberly something I am doing wrong but don't know what.

Here is my php.ini.

[PHP]

;;;;;;;;;;;
; WARNING ;
;;;;;;;;;;;
; This is the default settings file for new PHP installations.
; By default, PHP installs itself with a configuration suitable for
; development purposes, and *NOT* for production purposes.
; For several security-oriented considerations that should be taken
; before going online with your site, please consult php.ini-recommended
; and http://php.net/manual/en/security.php.

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; About this file ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; This file controls many aspects of PHP's behavior. In order for PHP to
; read it, it must be named 'php.ini'. PHP looks for it in the current
; working directory, in the path designated by the environment variable
; PHPRC, and in the path that was defined in compile time (in that order).
; Under Windows, the compile-time path is the Windows directory. The
; path in which the php.ini file is looked for can be overridden using
; the -c argument in command line mode.
;
; The syntax of the file is extremely simple. Whitespace and Lines
; beginning with a semicolon are silently ignored (as you probably guessed).
; Section headers (e.g. [Foo]) are also silently ignored, even though
; they might mean something in the future.
;
; Directives are specified using the following syntax:
; directive = value
; Directive names are *case sensitive* - foo=bar is different from FOO=bar.
;
; The value can be a string, a number, a PHP constant (e.g. E_ALL or M_PI), one
; of the INI constants (On, Off, True, False, Yes, No and None) or an expression
; (e.g. E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE), or a quoted string ("foo").
;
; Expressions in the INI file are limited to bitwise operators and parentheses:
; | bitwise OR
; & bitwise AND
; ~ bitwise NOT
; ! boolean NOT
;
; Boolean flags can be turned on using the values 1, On, True or Yes.
; They can be turned off using the values 0, Off, False or No.
;
; An empty string can be denoted by simply not writing anything after the equal
; sign, or by using the None keyword:
;
; foo = ; sets foo to an empty string
; foo = none ; sets foo to an empty string
; foo = "none" ; sets foo to the string 'none'
;
; If you use constants in your value, and these constants belong to a
; dynamically loaded extension (either a PHP extension or a Zend extension),
; you may only use these constants *after* the line that loads the extension.
;
; All the values in the php.ini-dist file correspond to the builtin
; defaults (that is, if no php.ini is used, or if you delete these lines,
; the builtin defaults will be identical).

; Allow the <? tag. Otherwise, only <?php and <script> tags are recognized.
; NOTE: Using short tags should be avoided when developing applications or
; libraries that are meant for redistribution, or deployment on PHP
; servers which are not under your control, because short tags may not
; be supported on the target server. For portable, redistributable code,

; Output buffering allows you to send header lines (including cookies) even
; after you send body content, at the price of slowing PHP's output layer a
; bit. You can enable output buffering during runtime by calling the output
; buffering functions. You can also enable output buffering for all files by
; setting this directive to On. If you wish to limit the size of the buffer
; to a certain size - you can use a maximum number of bytes instead of 'On', as
; a value for this directive (e.g., output_buffering=4096).
output_buffering = Off

; You can redirect all of the output of your scripts to a function. For
; example, if you set output_handler to "mb_output_handler", character
; encoding will be transparently converted to the specified encoding.
; Setting any output handler automatically turns on output buffering.
; Note: People who wrote portable scripts should not depend on this ini
; directive. Instead, explicitly set the output handler using ob_start().
; Using this ini directive may cause problems unless you know what script
; is doing.
; Note: You cannot use both "mb_output_handler" with "ob_iconv_handler"
; and you cannot use both "ob_gzhandler" and "zlib.output_compression".
;output_handler =

; Transparent output compression using the zlib library
; Valid values for this option are 'off', 'on', or a specific buffer size
; to be used for compression (default is 4KB)
; Note: Resulting chunk size may vary due to nature of compression. PHP
; outputs chunks that are few hundreds bytes each as a result of
; compression. If you prefer a larger chunk size for better
; performance, enable output_buffering in addition.
; Note: You need to use zlib.output_handler instead of the standard
; output_handler, or otherwise the output will be corrupted.
zlib.output_compression = Off

; You cannot specify additional output handlers if zlib.output_compression
; is activated here. This setting does the same as output_handler but in

; implications and is generally recommended for debugging purposes only.

; The unserialize callback function will be called (with the undefined class'

This is all great for PHP 4.x.x...
But I have the same trouble with php 5.0.5

Since mysql support is built in I am a bit stumped...

I have tried searching for the answer.. but am stuck..

On thing is my mysql server is not the localhost..

I have setup a user for the IP of the Gallery2 server..

Anyone got any ideas?

Jeff

you've got mysqli, not mysql.

g2 doesn't yet work with mysql.
you'd have to change a few instances of "mysqlt" to "mysqli".
in the installer:
install/steps/DatabaseSetupStep.class a few times
modules/core/classes/GalleryStorage.class
modules/core/classes/GalleryStorage/DatabaseStorage/MySqlDatabaseStorage.class

i guess that's about it. if that's it and it works for you, please submit your changed files and we can add native mysqli support to G2.

of course you can. i run mysql MySQL 4.1.10a and one test site and MySQL 4.1.12a on another with G2.

This really isn't a PHP or MySQL compiling site... but that error seems to imply that its looking for some mysql info in /usr/local/mysql, but is it actually THERE?

Well my friend figured out the problem, I compiled it again using both mysql and mysqli. Check it out http://www.diagon-music.com/php.php

I found out it had to be like this: --with-mysqli=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql/
I'm kind of embarrassed, I only tried as far as --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql/bin/
Thanks for all your help, I hope this helps someone else along the way!
