<section id="mysql.installation">

&reftitle.install;
|
|
<para id="mysql.configure">
|
|
By using the <option role="configure">--with-mysql[=DIR]</option>
|
|
configuration option you enable PHP to access MySQL
|
|
databases.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
In PHP 4, the option <option role="configure">--with-mysql</option> is
|
|
enabled by default. To disable this default behavior, you may use the
|
|
<option role="configure">--without-mysql</option> configure option.
|
|
Also in PHP 4, if you enable MySQL without specifying the path to the
|
|
MySQL install DIR, PHP will use the bundled MySQL client
|
|
libraries. In Windows, there is no DLL, it's simply built into PHP 4.
|
|
Users who run other applications that use MySQL (for example,
|
|
auth-mysql) should not use the bundled library, but rather specify the
|
|
path to MySQL's install directory, like so:
|
|
<option role="configure">--with-mysql=/path/to/mysql</option>.
|
|
This will force PHP to use the client libraries
|
|
installed by MySQL, thus avoiding any conflicts.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
In PHP 5, MySQL is no longer enabled by default, nor is the MySQL library
|
|
bundled with PHP. Read this <link linkend="faq.databases.mysql.php5">
|
|
FAQ</link> for details on why.
|
|
</para>

<note>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Windows users will need to enable <filename>php_mysql.dll</filename>
|
|
inside of &php.ini; and either copy <filename>libmysql.dll</filename>
|
|
into the Windows system directory, or make it available to the <envar>PATH</envar>.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
This will fix "Unable to load dynamic library './php_mysql.dll'" errors.
|
|
</para>

<para>

|
For compiling, simply use
|
|
<option role="configure"> --with-mysql=[DIR]</option> where
|
|
<literal>[DIR]</literal> points to your MySQL installation directory.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
This MySQL extension doesn't support full functionality of MySQL versions greater than
|
|
4.1.0. For that, use <link linkend="ref.mysqli">MySQLi</link>.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
If you would like to install the mysql extension along with the mysqli extension
|
|
you have to use the same client library to avoid any conflicts.
|

</para>

<warning>

<para>
|
|
Crashes and startup problems of PHP may be encountered
|
|
when loading this extension in conjunction with the recode extension.
|
|
See the <link linkend="ref.recode">recode</link> extension for more
|
|
information.

<para>
|
|
If you need charsets other than <emphasis>latin</emphasis> (default), you
|
|
have to install external (not bundled) libmysql with compiled charset
|
|
support.
