Where to add mysql extension "mysql-" in PHP?

[Deepaksh113]

I am trying to install Testlink 1.8.
Php5.2
Apache2.2
MySQL5.1 all are installed.

http://localhost/testlink/install/index.php is opening
i click on new installations
On this page it tells me
Checking MySQL Database Failed! MySQL Database cannot be used.

I select MySQl as database
I give localhost as db host
dbname as testlink
db login as root and leave the password blank
Testlink db login as "testlink"
Testlink db password as "testlink"

Click on Process Testlink setup
On Licence screen select the checkbox and click proceed.

I get the following error "Warning!: Your PHP installation don't have the mysql extension mysql- without it is IMPOSSIBLE to use Testlink.Failed! "

Please help!!!!

I am not sure, what server you using, But what i knew is in the PHP folder,

you will have php.ini file edit it and make sure, that
extension=php_mssql.dll
extension=php_mysql.dll
extension=php_mysqli.dll
This lines exist and should be in same way.

If this doesnt work, please uninstall you mysql and try again.

I think Search in the forums you will definitely get an answer.

It seems all that is need is to install the mysql extension:

For me, on Fedora 11, that is:

yum install php-mysql

That line will probably need modification to fit your system, if different.
