从php7连接到旧的mysql服务器（4.0.20-standard）

I want to connect to old mysql server (Server is 4.0.20-standard) with php7. Upgrade mysql server or downgrade php is not an option.

I'm doing this: $conn = mysqli_connect($local,$user,$pwd,$db,$port); But i'm getting this error: Warning: mysqli_connect(): Connecting to 3.22, 3.23 & 4.0 is not supported. Server is 4.0.20-standard. Is possible do that?

Solution (didactic solution, do not use this on production environment):

Step 1: Install putty.exe + plink.exe in php7 machine. Step 2: I created these methods to do all the job for you/me. Example1:

$query = "SELECT * FROM user";
$rs = select($query);

if($rs)
for($index = 0; $index < count($rs);$index++){
    //ALWAYS use this. Now u can use that array like a normal resultset $rs["lalala"]
    $row1 = $rs[$index];

    //use this like usual
    echo $rs["username"];
}

Example2:

$query = "SELECT * FROM user";
$rs = select($query);

if($rs)
for($index = 0; $index < count($rs);$index++){
    //ALWAYS use this. Now u can use that array like a normal resultset $rs["lalala"]
    //$row1 = $rs[$index];

    //now you didn't the line above...
    echo $rs[$index]["username"];//you'll need something like $rs[0]["username"]
}

For update/delete/insert you can use something similar to the insert method. Example 3:

if(m_insert("insert into user (name,pwd,email) values ('kkk', 'hahaha', 'email@lala.com');")){
    echo "</br>true</br>";
} else {
    echo "</br>false</br>"; 
}

Remember1: You need to change the method variables (host, database, username, password, etc)... Remember2: Change the mysql credentials at this line $commands[0] = 'mysql -u username -pPASSWORD...'
