How to enable mysql-support for the CLI?

[DarkAngelBGE]

Hi folks,

ran into a problem today where I am executing a script that uses mysql_connect() from the cli. It told me that mysql_connect() is unavailable.

How can I enable mysql for the cli? Thanks for your help!

Add/uncomment the following line in PHP.ini:

extension=php_mysql.dll

Darn, it is there, uncommented.

When I load up a page I have db access. When i access php via the cli and then type in "php -m" mysql is not listed.

Darn.

Where is your php.ini file located?

[DarkAngelBGE]

c:\wamp\apache2\bin

Ok you want to adjust the php.ini file in c:\wamp\php that is where the CLI is going for it.

Very handy to keep PHP configs for apache or cli separate.
