MyBB has experienced an internal error and cannot continue.

fixed by changing msql to mysqli in config file.
But I see this error in admin area

it was tagging plugin. Uninstalled and all good. Solved

I do think MyBB should automatically load mysqli instead of mysql if it is available so when people update they don't have to figure out the cause and fix.
