Error 44 after editing some files

[monsieur]

Hey, the forum was running nice and well, but when I tried to browse themes, it said can't connect to the database

So I searched for some solutions, and it said that going into inc/config.php and changing $config['database']['type'] = 'mysqli'; into mysql is going to solve the issue

now whenever I enter my website, I get

MyBB has experienced an internal error and cannot continue.
Error Type:
MyBB Error (44)
Error Message:
MyBB was unable to load the SQL extension. Please contact the MyBB Group for support. [url=https://mybb.com]MyBB Website

The worst thing is that when I change it back to mysqli it reports the same bug.
What have I done wrong and how can I fix this?
both mysqli or mysql report the same error :/

Thanks and take care

It's quite weird. Not sure if the file edit was successful.

You may use a PHP script leveraging phpinfo() to check if any MySQL extension is enabled. Please refer to the example in https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.phpinfo.php . Remember to remove this script after you get the result.

Where the mysql modules listed on the phpinfo.php page?

If you're looking at your phpinfo page, just do a text search in that page for "mysql"

I fixed this
I have noticed that for some reason, in /etc there was no php8.1.ini so I changed the version to php8.2, edited the .ini file, turned mysqli on in dynamic extensions, and changed some permissions and that fixed everything, my forum is running now, thank you
