No valid database drivers appear to be compiled into your PHP install

Post by pianoku »

Hi all,

I am trying to install the CMS on my network for intranet purposes.

When doing the Step 3, It gets an error message as follow:

“No valid database drivers appear to be compiled into your PHP install. Please confirm that you have mysql, mysqli, and/or postgres7 support installed, and try again.”

In the database type section.

Thank you for your help.

I am using the database from the CMSMS bundled. Fresh install.

I am going to install it on WIndows Server 2003 with Apache and MySQL and PHP 5.

Thanks.

There is no DB in the CMSMS folder, it wants to write to one...

In the Windows Extensions section of your php.ini file, make sure that the following lines are uncommented:

extension=php_mysql.dll
extension=php_mysqli.dll

Hi,  I have the same problem as Pianoku - the lines in PHP.ini have been uncommented. PHP.ini attached (extension only changed for upload!)  Help appreciated.
