Hi, I can't think of any way to screwup php (except disabling it) modifying httpd.conf. My guess is that you don't have mysql support or you haven't installed the mysql module for php.
Try this php code: <?php phpinfo(); ?> This will give you a lot of info about your php installation. Two important things you'll find here: 1.- configure options (how ./configure was invoked) 2.- Info about all modules compiled-in/loaded The first will tell you if mysql was included. The second will tell you if the mysql module is available in your running server Here is the (edited) output for php 4.1.0 with mysql compiled in. MySQL (if you don't see something like this, you don't have mysql support): mysql MySQL Support enabled Active Persistent Links 1 Active Links 1 Client API version 3.22.32 MYSQL_MODULE_TYPE external MYSQL_SOCKET /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock MYSQL_INCLUDE -I/usr/include/mysql MYSQL_LIBS -L/usr/lib -lmysqlclient Directive Local Value Master Value mysql.allow_persistent On On mysql.default_host no value no value mysql.default_password no value no value mysql.default_port no value no value mysql.default_socket /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock mysql.default_user no value no value mysql.max_links Unlimited Unlimited mysql.max_persistent Unlimited Unlimited Configure options (look for --with-mysql): Configure Command './configure' '--prefix=/usr' '--with-config-file-path=/etc/httpd/conf' '--disable-debug' '--enable-safe-mode' '--with-exec-dir=/usr/bin' '--enable-track-vars' '--enable-magic-quotes' '--disable-short-tags' '--enable-pear' '--enable-bcmath' '--with-mod-dav' '--enable-dba' '--with-gdbm' '--with-dbase' '--enable-ftp' '--with-gd' '--with-ttf' '--with-ldap' '--with-mysql=/usr' '--with-mm' '--enable-trans-sid' '--with-snmp' '--with-regex=system' '--enable-xml' '--enable-versioning' '--with-tsrm-pthreads' '--enable-inline-optimization' '--enable-sysvsem' '--enable-sysvshm' '--enable-calendar' '--with-gd' '--enable-gd-native-ttf' '--enable-ucd-snmp-hack' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib' '--with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs' '--with-openssl' '--with-gd=../gd-1.8.4' '--with-freetype-dir=/tmp/freetype2' On Sunday 28 April 2002 18:27, Ken Moffat wrote: > I'm ising the original version that was installed during the initial > install, but I have fiddled with my httpd.conf to try serving wml to my > cell phone, and may have fouled up a bit.
