   I got the following error when I installed it: Your PHP installation appears to be missing the MySQL extension which is required by WordPress.

   What does it mean and how do I fix it? I have my database in mySQL through my website.

   Thanks,
   Peggy

   Contact your site's host and tell them this error. The host should be able to fix the problem.

   This is what my host told me: It appears that you are currently using a Windows hosting plan using IIS version 6. You will need to change to a Linux hosting plan, which has the PHP support you require. I'm in the processing of switching so I'm hoping that it will fix the problem.
