Database refuses to work with mysqli - El Forum - 11-16-2008

Unfortunately the database library refuses to work with mysqli. With mysql everything works perfect.
I get "Unable to connect to your database server using the provided settings."
Are others having the same issue ?
My installation:
CI 1.7.0
Apache 2.2.9
php 5.2.6
on ubuntu 8.10

Yes, this one has heppend to me too. I used to load mysqli db driver but when I upgrade/replace the "system"(folder) with the CI v1.7 i get the message "Unable to connect to your database server using the provided settings", but if I change the db driver into "mysql", the system connects normally to my database without having any errors.

exactly the same problem here after upgrading to CI 1.7 FROM CI 1.6.3. This would be nice to fix since mysqli-driver works faster. Doesn't it?
