mysql PHP extension not installed - Miranda DB | Forum

Is the any fix for this ? I can't find one in the forum apart from switching the DB and as I have 20 php-Mysql web sites on the defecated servers I'm not going to do that for Oxwell to spit out another setting it doesn't like.

Regardless if your using maranda or not, you still need to meet the basic requirements, that means that you need to enable mysql and also the i extension with it. 


Also i dont think you mean defecated (which means poo)  i think you mean deprecated - which means no longer supported and old.

Ha ha yes I should read what and no just accept typo changes when offered :-)

Thing is mysql is installed and is working on my dedicated server, I know how to read <?php phpinfo(); ?> if it wasn't software like Phpmyadmin wouldn't work. If you search on this error oxwell is the only software I can find that doesn't how a solution to people using MarandaDB.

Even if it wasn't Oxwell should be moving to support MarandaDB as many people are moving to it for features not offered by MySqlDB

One day they will support it, but its a small team and it will take time, maybe even a year or two before might even happen.

Fair enough but that's no good for me I have 8,000 Facebook users to move over. I've now moved on to another application as I can't wait for maybes.  Makes me also wonder how secure this is going to be but not my problem now.

All the best and thanks again for your responses.

Hi Dave!


May I know what do you mean by MirandaDB?


There is MariaDB who replaces the MySQL, I have MariaDB installed on my server, my Oxwall website is running pretty fast on it.


Do you have this 3 extensions installed on your server?


php-mysql

php-mysqlnd

php-pdo

The php-mysql extension is obsolete in PHP7 (I'm using a Fedora 25 server). It has been replaced by php-mysqlnd. I'm going to just edit the script myself to remove the check if possible but it would be a smart move for you to make it check for EITHER php-mysql or php-mysqlnd but not both.

I just tested an installation and in case anyone is wondering, you can delete 'mysql' from this line:

php.extensions PDO, mbstring, zip, zlib, ftp, json, dom, gd, mysql;

in the file ow_install/files/requirements.txt and as long as you have your MySQL or MariaDB server set up properly, it will proceed and the software still works.

I didn't know Oxwall or 3rd party plugins supports PHP7? there's no mention of this. So have you ran into any compatibility issues yet or things are running smoothly?

It's amazing how all of these people can jump in and answer this, but no one seems to be able to tell me why oxwall decided to randomly generate an ERROR when trying to send private messages and completely disable the messaging feature.

Hi,


i have the same problem. I'm running a ubuntu 16.04 with LAMP (MariaDB, PHP7 and Apache2) and i get the error message:

  • mysql PHP extension not installed
What can i do to run oxwall on my server? It would be great if someone can help me.


Is this a working solution?

Remove mysql in this line:

php.extensions PDO, mbstring, zip, zlib, ftp, json, dom, gd, mysql;

in the file ow_install/files/requirements.txt and as long as you have your MySQL or MariaDB server set up properly, it will proceed and the software still works.


Regards
