Database connection issues - Mekaboo - 04-14-2019

Hey eveyone!

Im having issues connecting CI to database. I have a feeling some of it is due to my wbehost but was wondering if some of it was due to configuration mistake on my end. Ive attached a screenshot but if that doesnt open here it is:

A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Warning

Line Number: 203
Backtrace:

Function: require_once
A PHP Error was encountered

Function: require_once

Thank you for any help given!

@Mekaboo,

You need to check some things. Make sure that your php settings have MySQL extension turned on. Also, you should talk with your host company to make sure that you have the correct DB settings.

@Mekaboo,

Also, what version of CI are you using? PHP version?

After speaking with my webhost I realized I a few mistakes with the credentials in my database.php file. Got them fixed!!

@Mekaboo,

Glad I could help. One other recommendation. I'm surprised that your hosting company is still using PHP 5.4. PHP 5.4.x is EOL ( https://www.php.net/eol.php ) They should at least be 7.1.x.

And 7.1 will reach End of Life on 1 December 2019.

Im actually building a site for a client and the webhost they chose hasn't updated their php I guess. The webhost I use personally recently sent me an email to update my php so I will be doing that ASAP!!!

I have a feeling when the webhost inform my client of the change they will inform me. The webhost I use for myself has already informed me of the update so I will be doing that soon!!
