What does your `phpinfo()` return? Does it include info about MySQL? Server restarted? — , Apr 14 '12 at 10:58

Recommendation

I would recommend you use mysqli ( http://php.net/manual/en/book.mysqli.php ) which is an improved version of mysql

This problem appears because the MySQL module is not active into your PHP installation or because the MySQL module was not compiled with permanent connections support.

In the first case you should check that the php_mysql module is enabled into the php.ini file and if not, uncomment the line which enable this module. If you are running your PHP on Linux you have to compile this module first. (--with-mysql=shared)

Please Enable 2 extensions in your php.ini

extension=php_mysql.dll
extension=php_mysqli.dll

and please check libmySQL.dll in your php directory.
