MySQL database is not detected.
I am trying to install a PHP Jabbers script and in the install wizard it says that a MySQL database is not detected and ‘the system does not support minimum software requirements’ even though from what I can see the version is high enough. I do have a MySQL database created via cpanel also.
TIA
For some reason the link didn’t work so here it is fully
Wrong credentials?
When running locally, the script asks for creds in step 2, so idk whether thats it. I’m new to PHP and mysql but I made the database in cpanel by clicking mysql databases > entering a name > pressing create database.

I changed it to be the root but it made no difference.
I see the program is checking whether the PHP version is greater than 5.4 or not, which suggest that this program might be old. Our servers are indeed not using the standard MySQL Server, but MariaDB. It’s normally compatiable but this program might not be recognizing it.
You might want to use a newer alternative for your use case.
thank you, I managed to get it working by changing the code to ignore the check, and now it works fine. I went with this because my clients already use a script in a different side and its completely free 
this is the kind of hack I tend to do 
but you will need to do some thorough testing to be sure its compatible
good luck 
Lol yeah there was an official option so I’m hoping it’s supported - but I’ll do some testing to make sure. It all looks good at the moment
Thanks
