HPUX - Apache - PHP - MySQL

[PatRoy]

Hi.

I'm trying to setup Apache with PHP and MySQL on HPUX 11.31 ia64.

I've got Apache / PHP installed from the HP's depot: swlist -l fileset | grep -i apache

# hpuxwsAPACHE B.2.0.59.00 HP-UX Apache-based Web Server
hpuxwsAPACHE.APACHE B.2.0.59.00 2.0.59 base

hpuxwsAPACHE.PHP2 B.2.0.59.00 5.2.2 base (IPF Binaries)
hpuxwsAPACHE.WEBPROXY B.2.0.59.00 2.0.59 base


And MySQL as well: swlist -l fileset | grep -i mysql

I've got a regular test.php file work just fine. However, connections to MySQL DB doesn't work. Even though I've edited the php.ini to enable the extension :

grep -i mysql php.ini
extension=mysql.sl

Seems like mysql.sl is missing in the /opt/hpws/apache/php/lib/php/extensions/ folder. Heck. It's missing in the iexpres depot!

How can I get this ?

This IS my problem, right?

Regards, Patrick.

I'm bumping into the same problem. The xMySQL build for iExpress 11iv3 does not contain the mysql.sl file -- it's missing. It does for iExpress 11iv2 though.

How did you get around this? Do you have the 11iv3 mysql.sl file that you can post?

Thanks.

To be honest... i don't even remember what I had done nor from where I got the mysql.sl file!!! However, it's now working for me on HP-UX 11.31. I'm posting you the mysql.sl file. Make sure you've got the following in your php.ini file:

extension=mysql.sl

Cheers! Pat

Found a working mysql.sl.
