Problems with PHP 7.2 ?

[Sylvia]

Hello,

I'm having problems with Revive Ad Server since I updated my PHP version from 5.x to 7.2 yesterday. At least this is the reason I guess. I get the following error message but I didn't touch the database, didn't change anything else than the PHP.

Database connection error.
A fatal error occurred Revive Adserver can't connect to the database. Because of this it isn't possible to use the administrator interface. The delivery of banners might also be affected. Possible reasons for the problem are: <ul> <li>The database server isn't functioning at the moment</li> <li>The location of the database server has changed</li> <li>The username or password used to contact the database server are not correct</li> <li>PHP has not loaded the MySQL Extension</li> </ul>

Anybody any ideas what I can do to fix this problem?

Thankful,

Sylvia

Update your PHP installation to have the MySQL extension!

What does your phpinfo(); page look like?

Ah, I think maybe you don't need the PDO version of the MySQL library; instead, you can use the mysqli version, which Revive should support natively.
