[Sussex] Getting PHP to work with MySQL

[Paul Turner]

I had a similar issue when configuring a Centos server.

This was resolved by:
	
	yum install php-mysql 


I also installed the following (not needed for MySQL):

	yum install php-gd 
	yum install php-mbstring

As Fedora & Centos are both part of the RedHat family maybe this will work
for you too.

Regards, Paul.

Simon, you are right it should be mysql_connect() - I simply memorised 
the message one one machine and then (incorrectly) type it into my email 
message. So the basic problem still exists. Brendan
