I realize this is a dumb question after searching the forums and drupal site, but I get this error message after installing drupal and trying to access it for the first time:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect() in /var/www/drupal/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 31
According to what I read on the drupal site, this is caused by a missing myslq module for php. However, I installed the php5-mysql package (I am running debian) along with php5.
I am new to php as well, so I am not sure how to debug this problem.
I am trying to run drupal 4.6.6, mysql 4.0.24, and php5 on linux (debian) kernel 2.24.
I believe I set up the mysql database correctly - at least there are a lot of tables in my drupal database!
Thanks for any help you can provide!
