I'm having a hard time getting PHPBB installed on Centos. We get the error that The PHP configuration on your server doesn't support the database type that you chose. We choose MySQL 3.x but get that error. Perhaps PHP4 isn't compatible with MySQL 3.23.58-1? -- <<JAV>>

Try doing something like: #> yum install php-mysql This will add support for mysql to your installation, assuming it's the default rpm installation. php4 and mysql 3.23 is the most popular combination of programing language and db version on the planet.

You may want to try something like: yum install php-mysql.i386 Sounds like there is no mysql support installed for php. cya, TR On Thursday 14 April 2005 16:36, Joe Polk wrote:> I'm having a hard time getting PHPBB installed on Centos.

Perhaps PHP4 isn't > compatible with MySQL 3.23.58-1?I think it's not a problem of compatibility PHP4 with MySQL 3.x Few weeks ago I had a problem to access PostgreSQL database from the PHP on CentOS 4. I changed database username to the name httpd use to work in system - just "apache". After that I could run my PHP scripts.
