CMS Made Simple Forums

I am currently installing the latest CMSMadeSimple (1.1.3.1) on a Windows 2003 server which has the latest PHP edition (5.2.4) installed.

I can successfully install the program, but when it comes to choosing the database from the drop down menu, there's nothing in the list. It's not communicating with the database for some reason and I can't quite figure it out.

The error appears on Page 3 of the installation, under the field "Database Type" the error appears:

"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."


Hoping anyone may have some idea as to a solution, will be much appreciated. Thanks!

Have you mysql or postgres installed on server?
If yes check with PHP function:
if php is compiled with mysql or postgres (CMSMS support this db only)
