    Call to undefined function mysqli_init() in includes\class_core.php on line 1182

    PHP Version 5.2.3
    MySQL 5.0
    IIS6 - Win2003
    vBulletin 3.7.2

    Have just purchased and downloaded vBulletin 3.7.2 and installed onto a new dedicated Fasthosts server (http://www.fasthosts.co.uk/dedicated...S-450_Windows/)

    Followed the installation process to the letter and used mysqli as opposed to mysql due to PHP 5.2.3 but receive the following error:

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysqli_init() in ~\includes\class_core.php on line 1128

    If I change to mysql instead of mysqli I receive an error simply stating -

    Database error - The database has encountered a problem [Which is pretty useless as far as error messages go]

    I've checked and double checked the settings in php.ini

    I installed a WordPress blog onto the same domain earlier without any problems whatsoever - so what is the problem here?

      You don't have mysqli installed in php, as for the database error, right click and view source, then copy and paste the error here. We need to see the real error message to troubleshoot.

          OK, well I was assuming that mysqli installed in PHP, yet the extension in the php.ini is uncommented and the .dll is in the correct directory.

          Here is the source for the database error:

              That error message means you havent yet installed the software.

                  ok, it's installed now.

                  Thanks for your help.

                  btw, i would prefer to use the mysqli extension rather than the mysql one.

                  You are saying that this is a PHP issue?

                  Pah.

                  Any ideas on how i can confirm whether or not this extension is loaded into PHP?

                      You can look at your PHP Info page under Maintenance in the Admin CP. It would be listed as one of the additional modules. If it is not listed then you need to contact your hosting provider to have it included.
