I think you may be loading the wrong module. you want
extension=mysqli.so not extension=msqli.so

Hi,
I'm learning php and some of the sample code I'm working with
requires mysqli support.I'm getting a fatal error when I try to load
a page that uses the mysqli_connect() function:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysqli_connect() in
(You can see the error generated on this page:
http://www.thriftytitle.com/dummies/mysql_up.php)
I'm running php version 5.2.1 and MySql version 5.0.37, which the
documentation I've read said should supports the mysqli functions,
but I can't figure out what I need to change to get the page to load.
Here's what I've checked so far:
I checked my php.ini file. I tried adding this to the dynamic
extensions section:
extension=msql.so
extension-msqli.so
The php.ini file already contains the [MySQLi] code related to
max_links, default_port, default_socket, default_host, etc.
And my extensions_dir is set to what I think is the appropriate
extensions file on the server, though it is set with the ext
directory as part of the path, which may be unnecessary.
The php.ini file I am editing is the one indicated as the
Configuration File Path when I run the phpinfo function.
Can anyone help me figure out why the mysqli_connect() function
isn't working with the configuration described. Thanks in advance
for any help.
