I had a perfectly fine operational Apache Server running with PHP and MySQL support under Redhat 8, then after upgrading to Redhat 9, PHP still works, but the whole MySQL support element is now gone. I downloaded and installed the php-mysql latest rpm from rpmfind.net but still I'm getting nowhere (and yes, I've restarted httpd since then. Any ideas?
Yes, MySQL is running. It's the actual *support* for MySQL access in PHP that has disappeared, and unfortunately, I don't see any RH9 version of that php-mysql.rpm that enabled the support in Redhat 8.
Yeah, tried that, no luck... that was the first place I looked. Is is possible that the old file I installed in Redhat 8 is interfering? I mean, should I do something like rpm -e php-mysql.old.version.rpm and then install the new version? (and how come the new version isn't available on redhat.com and what are Redhat thinking turning off MySQL support by default... )
