Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-03-17 00:53:53] [EMAIL PROTECTED] We are sorry, but we can not support PHP 4 related problems anymore. Momentum is gathering for PHP 6, and we think supporting PHP 4 will lead to a waste of resources which we want to put into getting PHP 6 ready. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-11-22 02:32:13] carsten_sttgt at gmx dot de Description: ------------ Hello, now after 2 years, the same bug as in Bug #32557 still exists (and setting this to bogus in #32557 is just a bad joke. Maybe it is a "Won't fix", because you wont do the job). The problem is just the very, very old MySQL-Client (3.23.49), which is used for compiling the MySQL extension in PHP4/Win. And in PHP4/Win the extension is compiled in, and not a shared extension, so we (a Windows user) can't use an other (newer) extension in an easy way. BTW: In conclusion this sentence in the PHP-Manual [1] is not true for PHP4/Win: > Although this MySQL extension is compatible with MySQL 4.1.0 > and greater.
