Hi,
I am new to Eclipse PDT.
I want to make database applications with php and Mysql.
But I do not know how to connect Eclipse with my local database server.
I thought that this command would do the job but it didn't work.
mysql_connect("localhost","username","password");
I take the following error:
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect() in /home/pinkonomy/workspace/aaa/soc.php on line 4

Any suggestions please?
Is there any plug in that connects Eclipse PDT with the database server?

Thanks for your time.

Is same thing working from console?
What is the result of this command?
If not please double check Your connection settings.

Few, some are commercial,
There is quite good:

DBViewer Plugin 1.2.2.v20101009 zigen.plugin.future.feature.group

but once You learn to use console then You will never use anything else.

Ok, so server is running correctly.

According to manual:
mysql_connect (...) Returns a MySQL link identifier on success or FALSE on failure.

what is the result of something like this?

$conn = mysql_connect(...);
var_dump($conn, mysql_error());

Connection error will be reported by mysql_error.
If connection works from console then it should from php, eclipse has nothing to
that.

I take again the same error:PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect() in /home/pinkonomy/workspace/aaa/soc.php on line 3

I also googled it and found that I should uncomment the
extension=mysql.so in php.ini.
I also did it but nothing worked for me.

Run phpinfo() and make sure that You configured mysql properly, if not google
again for some tutorials. This is not PDT or Eclipse related problem, so this is
not best place to ask for some system related advices.

best regards

I am not so sure about not being an Eclipse nor PDT issue. I have the same problem today with an script that fails similar way but just when running into Eclipse. When invoked from command line it works fine. So I think its clear an Eclipse/PDT issue.

Most such problems are caused by configuration, so first be sure that your have
needed module. CLI usually uses different configuration or even different
version of PHP.

Of course you can be right about this issue, but first check simple things :)
