You'll likely need to restart your web server's service. – JNevill Mar 13 '23 at 19:51

@JNevill Hi already did that – vedant Balachandra Mar 13 '23 at 19:52

Are there any other debug steps you've performed? Anything interesting in the logs? – JNevill Mar 13 '23 at 20:05

@JNevill No sir i havent – vedant Balachandra Mar 13 '23 at 20:17

What OS are you on? Can you copy/paste the exact line in your `php.ini` (I'm thinking it may be a difference between `mysql` and `mysqli`, where the latter is the newer extension). – JNevill Mar 13 '23 at 20:21

@JNevill windows and the extension is mysql sir – vedant Balachandra Mar 13 '23 at 20:23

In the php.ini on windows, I think there should be a line like `extension=php_mysqli.dll`. Note that the `i` is important since you are using `mysqli_connect()` (which is a good choice). After finding and uncommenting that line, restart your web server service once again and see if you get past that error. – JNevill Mar 13 '23 at 20:29

The line may also lack the `.dll` and just be `extension=mysqli`. – JNevill Mar 13 '23 at 20:29

@JNevill okay sir will try this out – vedant Balachandra Mar 13 '23 at 20:31
