MYSQL on win xp and apache and ok php5

[Mashang]

hi,
about a week ago i designed a photo album using mysql database .. but now that i want to install the mysql on my system .. it doesnt work .. i have the green light beside my clock but when i test it over my own server it doesnt work.
I tried to test it with a simple code and it says :
Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect() in D:\arimoos\sql.php on line 20
I know my code doesnt have a prob but i will copy the line 20 for you :
$link = mysql_connect("$dbServer", "$dbUser", "$dbPass") or die("Could not connect");
....
Thnx anyway
p.s. so you i havent change anything on my php.ini and apache conf ..
if anyone can help me real fast cause i need to upload this thing by end of this month or ...

You need to install the mysql-php connector.

Hi thnx for the tip but
its eems i cant find the softwqare you said on the internet
can u point me into the direction ?!

 

[ericbrunson]

I may be wrong about this. Did you compile PHP5 yourself? It has to be compiled with --with-mysql=[path to mysqlclient libs dir]
