Hi all,

I currently using MySQL 4.1.14 as my sql server. What I know that if you using MySQL 4.1.x version, the extension must use "mysqli" not "mysql" in php, so does XOOPS support it?or have any update patch can solve this problem.

I have try to modify all the MySQL command from 'mysql' to 'mysqli' in html\class\database\mysqldatabase.php, after i modify i didn't get the fatal line 74 error but it become blank page. When i go to check my database, i didn't see any table create. Can anyone let me know which file i need to modify again or what does i do now.

I have install other blog system in my server, it suport mysqli and work very properly after I install it.

My Apache Server is 2.0.54.
My PHP is 5.1.0 RC1.
My Server is Win 2000 SP4.

I use 4.1.13 without any code changes. It's working fine.

Are you sure, it is not just a matter of loading a different extension in the webserver's extension loading configuration?

Hi capricornus

MySQLi extension is only a option not a requirement. So if you want to run PHP with the old MySgl extension no problem...

I'm sitting here trying to recall where i read that mysqli is.. well there is different opinons on that extension....

In regard as wether XOOPS can use Mysqli..really don't know. But one thing i do know, that is if using mysqli you get the full advantage of MySQL 4.X versions.

Personally i use the old MySQL extension and it works fine for me. If you want to dig deeper into this subject i reccomend the following link.
