Upgrading web server doesn’t work

    I’m trying to upgrade my web server from Apache 1.x to Apace 2.x. I’m currently running the servers in parallel, I’m running version 2 on port 8080. When I run my blog on v1 server everything works just fine, but when I try on the v2 server I get the following error message

    Your PHP installation appears to be missing the MySQL which is required for WordPress.

    I can’t figure what’s wrong, does anyone have an idea for what I’m missing?

    This question could be answered probably in a forum where they discuss “how to set up a server”. Such questions are beyond the sciope of the WP forum.

    Even if you were able to get apache2 configured, It’d be difficult to share the same database/installation between web servers. WordPress stores the url (i.e. http://yoursite.com/) in the database. So it’d have a hard time finding http://yoursite.com:8080/

    It looks like it’s the mod_php module that hasn’t mysql support enabled. Now I “just” need to figure out to enable it.

    I’m not actually going to run two servers, it’s just for testing purposes to make sure that things “works” before switching to v2.
