Unable to connect to the database:The MySQL adapter “mysql” is not available.
was trying to use PHP, mysql, IIS and joomla.
somehow, i keep getting this error
Unable to connect to the database:The MySQL adapter “mysql” is not available.
well. most forum says its my php not having the extension and php.ini not having the extension as follows:
extension=php_mysql.dll
I install and uninstall countless times, removed the ini in the process too to make sure things are properly installed. and i check my php.ini and the extension is there.. the dll file is there too.
I dunt understand whats wrong.. zzz. maybe its the lack of sleep…
on the sidenote.. im trying out symfony. hopefully it’ll be good. =) and learning cron jobs and some bash scripts.. =)

Hi Scott, unfortunately, my computer was due for reformating the days after that. and it didnt get an error after installing mysql, joomla,iis. Do you have apache? sometimes there’s a conflict between the two(apache and iis) and its easier if you stick with one. =)

No, I have IIS6, php 5.2.5 and MySQL 5.1.30

Hi Scott
I am battling with the same problem. It looks as though PHP is the culprit. Try accessing the MySql database over webserver but not using the Joomla.

may be some of problems caused by firewall made mysql can not be accessed
