No PHP MySQL functions available Warning while Installaing ISPConfig3

Hello HTF users and moderators...

Working with a clean installation and the HowTo:The Perfect Server - Ubuntu 12.10

32bit machine

I have worked through the HT and got snagged on the end portion involving the installation of ISPConfig3.

PHP Version:

Code:

5.4.11

Code:

php-mysql

INSTALLED

PHP Installation Method: FastCGI

After running

Code:

php -q install.php

ISPConfig3 installation starts, and I am able to provide Language, Method, and FQDN

Then ISPConfig3 install complains:

Code:

No PHP MySQL functions available. Please ensure that the PHP MySQL module is loaded.

Output of: netstat -tap | grep mysql

Code:

tcp 0 0 *:mysql *:* LISTEN 1230/mysqld

I have searched the HTF community and located a few complaints of the same issue from users utilizing different HTF Perfect Server solutions which involves the use of ISPCOnfig3, anything suggested in those posts I have tried with failure though.

Thanking you in advance for your help

The Ubuntu php mysql package is named php5-mysql and not php-mysql. Please install all packages as described in the guide.

To install the missing package, run:

apt-get install php5-mysql

php5-mysql Was Installed, Just My Omission During Original Post for Support

Simply an omission on my behalf during the original post.

Code:

php5-mysql

IS installed...

Below you will find this mornings output after attempting to install

Code:

ph5-mysql

again.

Code:

root@pcnetwork:~# apt-get install php5-mysql

Reading package lists... Done

Building dependency tree

Reading state information... Done

php5-mysql is already the newest version.

5.4.11 is a really new PHP version. I doubt it was installed through apt - I guess it was built manually, and MySQL support was left out.

Hey Falko

Thanks for the reply.

Yeah when I did the installation I went to php.net and looked over their downloads page and was ONLY able to locate 5.4.11.
http://www.php.net/downloads.php

I installed php 5.4.11 VIA wget

Should I uninstall php 5.4.11 or what might you suggest?

Thank you Falko
Best Regards

You must recompile it, but with MySQL support.

Ok, so you did not follow the Ubuntu installation instructions like you claimed above....

I was kind of forced to vary as the night I was attempting to download 5.3.18 as defined in the Tutorial the system indicated that the file could not be found.
That was when I varied from the Tutorial and went to http://www.php.net/downloads.php and found version 5.4.11, I simply didn't figure that the version change would cause issue...

Other than difference in version of php I did adhere however.

You can find older PHP release here: http://www.php.net/releases/

I used apt-get remove and backed out of all previous software installations.

I followed the Tutorial, up til page 5, when I attempt to use the link:

Code:

wget http://olivier.sessink.nl/jailkit/jailkit-2.15.tar.gz

Using the above URL returned the following error:

Code:

--2013-02-15 20:23:28--  http://olivier.sessink.nl/jailkit/jailkit-2.15.tar.gz

Resolving olivier.sessink.nl (olivier.sessink.nl)... failed: Temporary failure in name resolution.

wget: unable to resolve host address `olivier.sessink.nl'

So I Googled jailkit-2.15, the following download file succeeded.

Code:

wget http://fossies.org/unix/privat/jailkit-2.15.tar.gz

Once again however, when time to install ISPConfig3 the system still returns:

Code:

No PHP MySQL functions available. Please ensure that the PHP MySQL module is loaded.root@pcnetwork:/tmp/ispconfig3_install/install# ensure that the PHP MySQL module is loaded

-bash: ensure: command not found
