No pdo_mysql no mysqli, other options?

Hi All,

I’ve just gotten access to a clients NetworkSolutions hosting account and tried uploading an application to it only to find out that despite having php 5.2.4 it doesn’t have pdo_mysql or mysqli extension installed. Is there any hope of changing the adapter to something else without having to rewrite all of my database code?

Thanks, MS

Switch hosts, or write a mysql adaptor. NS may be willing to compile new extensions in, depending on the plan. If its a windows server (shudder), you can turn new extensions on in PHP.ini as it ships with binaries for the extensions already.

I try to get a phpinfo() for the production server before I get started. This way I can customize my development server to only support the things the target server can. I've been bit like this before.
