Database error question

[COOLORANGEFREEZ]

Hi - I have the VB 3.8.3

I only use it to post research. Not for posting by the public.

Everything was fine until on the same VPS the PHP was compiled and curl was activated for another of my domains on a separate cPanel.

Then there were some detractable errors. They said, " I tried creating a new database and user and restored the database with the old one but still the base error exists."

"I have checked the mysql log but was not able to find any errors regarding the database. Could you please check the error with your developer and let me know if there is anything that needs to be done from our side."

Starting MySQL. ERROR! Manager of pid-file quit without updating file.

Any ideas for a fix would be appreciated. Thanks!

What version of PHP and MySQL are on the server?

[COOLORANGEFREEZ]

Hi - More info:

mysql_connect(): The mysql extension is deprecated and will be removed in the future: use mysqli or PDO instead
/home/wartornnations/public_html/forum/includes/class_core.php on line 311


It is throwing that error because mysql_connect extension is deprecated (http://php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-connect.php) for PHP versions 5.5 and above. The current PHP version in the server is 5.6

==
mysql Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.96, for pc-linux-gnu (i686) using readline 5.1
[root@server ~]# php -v
PHP 5.6.30 (cli) (built: Feb 5 2017 14:12:16)
Copyright (c) 1997-2016 The PHP Group
==

You will have to contact your developer and use mysqli or PDO instead to get this fixed.


Is there somewhere where I can just add the "i" and it should be good?

Thanks for your help

--------------- Added 1486700328 at 1486700328 ---------------

This is line 301 to 315. Should I go to line 311 and edit something? I don't see anywhere to add an "i". This is in file class_core.php

function db_connect($servername, $port, $username, $password, $usepconnect, $configfile = '', $charset = '')
{
if (function_exists('catch_db_error'))
{
set_error_handler('catch_db_error');
}

// catch_db_error will handle exiting, no infinite loop here
do
{
$link = $this->functions[$usepconnect ? 'pconnect' : 'connect']("$servername:$port", $username, $password);
}
while ($link == false AND $this->reporterror);

restore_error_handler();

Right now I am seeing if we downgrade to 5.4 php if that will help.

So I got it to work by downgrading to 5.4 php. Thanks for any future help.

You edit your includes/config.php - around line 26 change the database type to 'mysqli'

You edit your includes/config.php - around line 26 change the database type to 'mysqli'


in includes and then config.php it only says -

<?php
/*================================================= =====================*\

|| # All PHP code in this file is

There must be another file with same name if I wanted to make this change in the future. Thanks for the info.

Change the red text to mysqli in includes/config.php
