When I try to create a database connection, I get the message
"Your PHP server doesn't have the MYSQL module loaded or you can't use the mysql_(p)connect functions."
My server uses mysqli and PHP 7
How can I tell Dreamweaver to use these versions to connect?
Copy & paste this into a new .php file. Change username, password and database as required.
<?php
$con = mysqli_connect("localhost","username","password","database");
// Check connection
if (mysqli_connect_errno())
{
echo "Failed to connect to MySQL: " . mysqli_connect_error();
}
else echo "Successfully connected, happy coding!"
?>
<?php phpinfo() ?>
Save and Open in browser. See screenshot.
