It's Been several years since I have been to this FAQ. I decided to ramp up and get my old Server's out of the closet and rebuilt them with centos 5.2. MySQL is in stalled by default and updated by YUM. Now that I have figured out my BIND DNS "Agian". iam having problems witht he New 2.3.2 XOOPS and the MySQL Extension has Failed by the installation recomendation list. Any Suggestions to where to find the MySQL Extension I need either from Mysql.com or another fastmirror. Thanks.

You'll need to install the MySQL server:
yum install mysql-server


If yum cannot find the MySQL server package you'll need to add a repo listing that has it. Add a new repository in:
/etc/yum.repos.d/some repository. repo

My mis understanding. I already have MySQL 5.0.45. Install. Do I need to install this again as per your reccomendation. I need to know why the DBconnection page fails, Due to of coarse the PERCL Modules are not in the write directory or no in the directory at all and php.ini file is not configured right or that MySQL is not install correctly from the CENT OS 5.2 installation.

Mysql-server is all you need for xoops. If you are getting a db connection failure this could be caused by the database user and pass not being set correctly.

Try connecting to your XOOPS database from a terminal with the same user and pass used during installation. If you can connect with this user/pass combo make sure the same settings are in the database directives in your mainfile.php
