phpmyadmin works host:81/mysql


but my programs do not connect to the DB

I have a custom built program it works on a 5.2 server i copy the DB and php program to the 6.2 server as well as creating the proper username and pass and priveldegs in mysql and I get an error



Unable to select database

but I have access to it using navicat same using the credentials for my program.

Why would i be getting this error


I get this error even with using root credentials

I had a similar sounding problem with 6.2 when I ran an installer script following is the reply I got from Tim Burgess


To enable PHP to interact with mysql you need the php-mysql extension




Code:




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

yum install php-mysql

below is the link to my original thread

It would seem that 6.2 doesn't have as many of the PHP add-ons preinstalled as was the case with 5.2
