Call to undefined function: mysql_connect()

Hi,
the following error occurs when going to step3 of the installation wizard:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mysql_connect() in /var/www/cmsmadesimple-0.7.3/adodb/drivers/adodb-mysql.inc.php on line 338

any ideas?

Connecting to mysql via MySQLFront and Webmin works in general

regards Gunnar

I would guess that the mysql modules aren't installed. If it's linux/unix, there is generally a php-mysql package or something similar that you need to install to enable that functionality. If it's windows, then you might have to wait for someone else to help.

Look in /etc/php4/apache2/php.ini and search for extension=mysql.so. Make sure it's not commented out (has a ; in front of it). If so, take out the ; and restart apache.
