Hello. I am experiencing the same problem with the same error message:
"Fatal Error: Mysql is not supported in your PHP, recompile and try again."

Have you been able to resolve it?

Thanks, for the link. I checked all that out, but unfortunately it has to be another issue. PHP and MySQL are working fine and taking to one another. I ahve PHPMyAdmin running on the domain just fine. Is there another reason I would get this message:
"Fatal Error: Mysql is not supported in your PHP, recompile and try again."

I'm stumped.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

Hey folks,

I've set up phpmyadmin just fine. I checked through the command line that database phplistdb could be accessed by user phplist, and configured /var/www/lists/config/config.php with the database, username, and password. Yet, I'm getting the error:

Fatal Error: Mysql is not supported in your PHP, recompile and try again.

Any clues?

Hi folks,

I am using Ubuntu dapper, and this solved the problem:

apt-get install php5-mysqli

This may have been overkill, but at least one of the packages php5-mysqli depended on enabled php to access mysql from the command line, probably php5-cli

Good luck finding a similar solution in other distros.

Hi,

I had the same problem when trying to send newsletter with the command-line (Ubuntu server 6.06, apache2, php5, phplist2.10.4)

In /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini :
extension=mysqli.so
extension=gd.so
extension=mysql.so
extension=mcrypt.so
extension=sqlite.so
extension=xsl.so

In /etc/php5/cli/php.ini :
extension=mcrypt.so
extension=sqlite.so
extension=xsl.so

Adding the missing extensions for the cli solved the problem.

I have a similar problem...

It is setup like this:

Ubuntu Feisty Fawn
Ubuntu LAMP server installed from synaptic package
phpMyAdmin installed and working
phplist installed - getting the error "Fatal Error: Mysql is not supported in your PHP, recompile and try again."

What should I try? When I navigate to http://localhost/lists/admin I get the error "Fatal Error: Mysql is not supported in your PHP, recompile and try again."

I know mysql is working with php or phpMyAdmin wouldn't work. What am I missing?

To see if selinux is the cause of the problem disable it, restart your webserver and try again.

# to disable selinux
echo 0 >/selinux/enforce

restart httpd

# to enable selinux
echo 1 >/selinux/enforce

At least for me this was the root cause. Now I still need to find time to better understand selinux and how it might be configured to work with phplist.

I found that the /usr/local/php5.3/etc/extensions.ini file had mysqli enabled, but not mysql.
That apparently allowed phpMyAdmin to work, but not phpList.
ymmv
