Php and MySQL with WebServer Suite 2.12

[Rivet]

Hi all,
I just installed HP Web Server suite V2.12.
I also installed MySql from a tar file (mysql-standard-4.0.12-hp-hpux11.11-hppa2.0w-64bit.tar.gz)
When I try to acces MySQL, I get the message "PHP cannot load MySQL Extension. Check your PHP config".
I checked it but I am not able to find anything wrong !
I believed MySQL was built-in and therefore there was no need to enable anything !

Could someone help me ?

Thanks

If Apache was started, try this:

create files phpinfo.php:


And try to execute it: http://lalala/phpinfo.php


What do you see in MYSQL section of the output?

Alex.

[Rivet]

I have a SQLite section on phpinfo() but no mySQL section.
The mySQL install seems to be OK (all tests passed with mysql-test-run).
So php and mySql seems to be OK on their own side, but they are unable to work together ...

[Alex Lavrov.]

Hmm, that's weird ...

What's the compile line that was used to compile php? You can see at the first section of the output.

I think that it cannot find mysql libraries.

Alex.

[Rivet]

Yes, I agree with you, it looks like some libraries not found. And It seems that msyql.so is not present on my system, I can't find it.
Attached is the whole output of phpinfo().

find / -name libmysql.so


Any results?


Alex.

[Rivet]

No result !

Ploho ...


Let's try this:

find / -name mysql | grep so


But I doubt that we'll find the libraries.

Alex.

[Alex Lavrov.]

oops, sorry:

find / | grep -i mysql > /tmp/mysql_files.txt

Can you attach this file?

Alex.

[Rivet]

Here is the output file.
Actually, there is no library in ... but it doesn't really surprise me because as far as I know, HP WebServer Suite should contain a PHP version with mySQL client build-in.
Like it's said on HP site : "... However substantial functionality including MySQL database connectivity is built into PHP ... ".

Hmm .. that's true, it's built in from the version 4.something.

Do you see any errors in "access_log" of Apache?

[Rivet]

I didn't have the usual acces_log file so I just configured it and restarted apache.
But there isn't anything wrong in it nor in the error_log file ...

[Rivet]

Well ...
Since I was in a total blackout, I decided to downgrade to HP WebServer Suite 2.10.
The main difference is PHP version 4 in place of PHP 5.
It's a bit frustrating but it work's ...

Thanks anyway for your help, Alex.

My bad, I didn't notice that it was PHP5.
