I keep getting this error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect();
After searching online I learnt that mysql is not included in this new version.
I am using xampp with PHP versions: 5.5.33 on windows server 2012 R2. I used phpinfo() function to search for MySQL but I can only find MySQLi, MySQL and and PDO but nothing for MySQL.
I need help to activate MySQL.
Much appreciated!
It's because mysql is already deprecated in PHP v5.5.x
http://php.net/manual/en/migration55.deprecated.php
Use mysqli instead.
