Hi
I have MySQL installed but when I try and install MyBB i get the error
"MyBB requires one or more suitable database extensions to be installed. Your server reported that none were available."
How can I diagnose the problem. Am I supposed to modify php.ini??

Site link?
What verison of MySQL is it? Although I dont suppose this matters from a normal point of view. Also are you on a localhost (home PC)? if so, Are you running Windows/Mac/Linux?
If you are on a web host it seems the mysql was setup wrong
It's just not been setup properly if it's saying no extensions are installed.
Who is your host?? Looks like they can't even configure any database connections properly for MySQL. You'd be better off getting a new host and not one wasting your time with this.
I can log into mysql with
mysql --user=root --password=<mypassword>
Php is installed correctly.
But, how, e.g., do I tell MyBB to use mysql instead of another database. From the code, it looks like it uses a key [database] is coming from php.ini or something.

I am running this on my own machine. WindowsXp with Apache.

Did you Take off
; in the php.ini
;extension=php_mysql.dll
;extension=php_mysqli.dll
So it looks like this
extension=php_mysql.dll
extension=php_mysqli.dll
Just somthig to check
It turns out that php_mysql.dll because it isn't automatically enabled on Windows.
Thx!!
