I'm asking about MySQLi (the PHP extension, MySQL improved) not MySQL itself.

In your inc/config.php find $config['database']['type'] and tell me what it says right after that
yes it shows below

$config['database']['type'] = 'mysqli';
Your new host doesn't have mysqli installed. I would say either ask them to install mysqli for you or change in the line above mysqli to mysql and see if that works to fix the problem. Smile
nice
it works
thanks
