Hello all.
Basically, I'm trying to install PDO with MySQL support on a RedHat
server.
I ran the following commands:
pecl install pdo
pecl install pdo_mysql
I edited the php.ini file and added the following 2 lines:
extension=pdo.so
extension=pdo_mysql.so
I rebooted Apache. It shows PDO installed, but ONLY with the sqlite2
and sqlite extensions installed!!!
I then tried uninstalling pdo_mysql and running this command:
PHP_PDO_SHARED=1 pecl install pdo_mysql
rebooted Apache and the SAME PROBLEM!!!
I cannot for the life of me figure out how to fix this issue. Has
anyone else had this issue? It works fine for FreeBSD but for whatever
reason I can't get it to work on RedHat.
Also, why is it that SQLite is installed?? I can't find it anywhere in
the php.ini file as being an installed extension, and yet PDO is using
it's driver by default and completely ignoring my extension.
here is what it shows in phpinfo():
PDO
PDO support enabled
PDO drivers sqlite2, sqlite
pdo_sqlite
PDO Driver for SQLite 3.x enabled
PECL Module version (bundled) 1.0.1 $Id: pdo_sqlite.c,v 1.10.2.6.2.2
2007/03/23 14:30:00 wez Exp $
SQLite Library 3.3.17
Also, I tried connecting through a basic script and it reports error:
"can not find driver".
I'm using PHP 5.2.3
Here is the configure command:
'./configure' '--with-apxs2=/web/apps/apache-2.2.4/bin/apxs'
'--disable-debug' '--enable-ftp' '--enable-inline-optimization'
'--enable-magic-quotes' '--enable-mbstring' '--enable-mm=shared'
'--enable-safe-mode' '--enable-track-vars' '--enable-trans-sid'
'--enable-wddx=shared' '--enable-xml' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib'
'--with-dom' '--with-gd=/usr/lib' '--with-gettext'
'--with-mysql=/web/apps/mysql-5.0.45' '--with-regex=system' '--with-xml'
'--with-oci8=instantclient,/usr/include/oracle/10.2.0.3/client'
'--with-oci8=instantclient,/usr/lib/oracle/10.2.0.3/client/lib'
'--with-zlib-dir=/usr/lib'

Re: PDO - MYSQL driver not working
Does normal MySQL work? I ask because it could be that the mysqlclient stuff isn't installed.
Re: PDO - MYSQL driver not working
yep, mysql is installed, and works using the old school methods (mysql_connect($blah)). I actually have this resolved now. It's an issue with PHP 5.2.3 and the PECL installer. Upgrading to PHP 5.2.6 and using the registered ./configure method fixes it.

Re: PDO - MYSQL driver not working
Did you install the mysql-devel package? I think it's required before you run: pecl install pdo_mysql
