Undefined function mysql_connect()
mysql, mysql-connect, php, ubuntu, undefined-function
Solution
Well, this is your chance! It looks like PDO is ready; use that instead.
Try checking to see if the PHP MySQL extension module is being loaded:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
If it's not there, add the following to the `php.ini` file:
extension=php_mysql.dll
Problem
I have ran `aptitude install php5-mysql` (and restarted MySQL/Apache 2), but I am still getting this error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect() in /home/validate.php on line 21 `phpinfo()` says the /etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/pdo_mysql.ini file has been parsed.
