I have tried to install the latest drupal (this is my first time) .
I edited php.ini and placed many extensions to load including
extension=php_pdo.dll
extension=php_msql.dll
extension=php_mssql.dll
extension=php_mysql.dll
extension=php_mysqli.dll
which i believe are the ones that have to do with mysql connection...Even with this, I try to install drupal and I get the error
"In your ./sites/default/settings.php file you have configured Drupal to use a mysql server, however your PHP installation currently does not support this database type."
I created a test page which uses the phpinfo()
<?php phpinfo() ?>
and there is a part where it says "Additional Modules" and it's in blank. Does this mean the modules are not loading? If so, what might be the problem. I have read many forums and haven't found something similar. I just read that doing the phpinfo will tell you if the modules are running or not. But I can't figure out why this is happening?
Please help.
Thank you,
Mickey
P.S I have installed MYSQL without any problems and the apporiate permissions.
