Move libmysql.dll to: WINDOWS or: WINNT. For php 5 (i think) you have to add mysql (extension=phpmysql.dll) to the extensions list. I have both mysql and mysqli extensions loaded on my local server, so i can use either one for mysql 4.1. Stack Exchange Network. Stack Exchange network consists of 175 Q&A communities including Stack Overflow, the largest, most trusted online community for developers to learn, share their knowledge, and build their careers. Visit Stack Exchange. Recently I discovered that mysqli extension is not installed in my server Centos version 2.6. I confirm it because I change the driver of db connection from mysqli to mysql and now works fine. So, is there another way/log to determinate this problem? Because the apache errorlog does not say anything about it.

How to install MySQL drivers for php 7 on windows system?

Error: - Installation request for pear-pear.php.net/mdb2_driver_mysql 1.4.1 -> satisfiable by pear-pear.php.net/MDB2_Driver_mysql[1.4.1]. - pear-pear.php.net/MDB2_Driver_mysql 1.4.1 requires ext-mysql * -> the requested PHP extension mysql is missing from your system.

Problem 2 - Installation request for pear-pear.php.net/validate_au 0.1.4 -> satisfiable by pear-pear.php.net/Validate_AU[0.1.4]. - pear-pear.php.net/Validate_AU 0.1.4 requires php >=4.2.0.0,<=6.0.0.0 -> your PHP version (7.1.4) does not satisfy that requirement

I guess you haven't enabled mysql in your XAMPP server yet. To do that:

At first close all running services of xampp. Now, go to your xampp folder. Then go to php folder and open the file named php.ini with any text editor. Now search for mysql in that file. You will find a line stating ;extension=php_mysqli.dll. The ; symbol describes it as a comment that means it is not enabled yet. Simply cut out that ; sign in front of that line which will now look like extension=php_mysqli.dll. Finally save the file and restart xampp.

The problem is that the package that used to connect PHP to MYSQL is depricated (php5-mysql). If you install the new package:

This will automatically update apache and php7.

I got the solution,I am able to enable MySQLi extension in php.ini, just uncommented this line in php.ini

Now MySQLi working well.Here is php.ini file path in apache2,PHP 7, Ubuntu 14.04 environment:

By Default MySQLi extension is disable in PHP 7.

• phpenmod moduleName enables a module to php7 (restart apache after that sudo service apache2 restart)
• phpdismod moduleName disables a module to php7 (restart apache after that sudo service apache2 restart)
• php -m lists the loaded modules

In ubuntu need to uncommented this line in php.ini which is located at /etc/php/7.0/apache2/php.ini

extension=php_mysqli.so

On ubuntu,

When mysqli is missingexecute the following,

replace 7.x with your PHP version.

note: This could be 7.0 and up, but for example Drupal recommends 'php7.2' on grounds of security a.o.

To check your php version, on the command-line type:

You do exactly the same if you are missing mbstring

I recently had to do this for PHPmyadmin when upgrading php from 7.0 to 7.2on Ubuntu 16.04 .

Let's use

mysqli_connect

instead of

mysql_connect

because mysql_connect isn't supported in php7.
