OK, thread restored. Am I looking for a table identified as MySQL or for a value in one of the cells of the tables? There is no table called MySQL. The configuration section has the following tables: PHP Core apache2handler Apache Environment HTTP Headers Information bcmath calendar com_dotnet ctype date dom filter ftp hash iconv json libxml odbc pcre Reflection session SimpleXML SPL standard tokenizer wddx xml xmlreader xsmwriter zlib Additional Modules (no rows in this table) Environment PHP Variables PHP License ==================== Please, don't break threading. cknell(a)onebox.com wrote: A header called mysql And the table below would have: "MySQL Support enabled" ==================== What do I look for in the output? -- Charles Knell cknell(a)onebox.com - email ==================== mysqli is not needed, just mysql. The problemm is that, even though you have MySQL working standalone, you don't have mysql working with php. Run a phpinfo(), if mysql extension were properly installed, it would appear there. ==================== My environment: Windows Vista Home Premium Edition Apache 2.2.13 (Win32) MySQL 5.1.38 MySQL Community Server PHP 5.2.10 MediaWiki 1.15.1 I have installed and tested Apache. It's working. I have installed and tested MySQL. It's working. I have installed and tested PHP. It's working. When I attempt to install MediaWiki, I get an error message telling me that it "Could not find a suitable database driver." I have only one php.ini file on my system and according to the phpinfo() function, that is the one that is loaded. Both the php_mysql.dll and php_mysqli.dll are listed in php.ini and not commented out in the extensions section: extension=php_mysql.dll extension=php_mysqli.dll Please, can someone suggest something else to check or do that will enable me to install MediaWiki? -- Charles Knell cknell(a)onebox.com - email -----Original Message----- From: cknell(a)onebox.com Sent: Sat, 05 Sep 2009 23:01:02 -0400 To: mediawiki-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org Subject: Re: [Mediawiki-l] MediaWiki 1.15.1 on Vista Home Premium Edition install error I ran run D:\php\php.exe -i as you suggested and I redirected the output to a text file. Here's what I've found: Configuration File (php.ini) Path => C:\Windows Loaded Configuration File => D:\php\php.ini Further down I see a list of Dynamic Extensions. Among these is extension=php_mysql.dll Any thoughts? -- Charles Knell cknell(a)onebox.com - email -----Original Message----- From: Platonides <Platonides(a)gmail.com> Sent: Sat, 05 Sep 2009 23:37:44 +0200 To: mediawiki-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org Subject: Re: [Mediawiki-l] MediaWiki 1.15.1 on Vista Home Premium Edition install error cknell(a)onebox.com wrote: can interpret as an error message. mysql extension hasn't been loaded, despite your changes to php.ini Perhaps it's loading a different php.ini? You can run D:\php\php.exe -i and look for "Loaded Configuration File" _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list MediaWiki-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list MediaWiki-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list MediaWiki-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
