KodeKloud E-commerce Application - php-mysql is not working

Shell Scripting
#1

Hi Team,

I tried using the Centos 8 Playground here on KodeKloud to follow the Demo but I am stuck at installing httpd and php with the command:

$ sudo yum install -y httpd php php-mysql

It wont work on the playground and gave the following error.

bob@centos-host ~ ➜ sudo yum install -y httpd php php-mysql
Last metadata expiration check: 0:10:08 ago on Thu Aug 18 01:32:28 2022.
No match for argument: php-mysql
Error: Unable to find a match: php-mysql

So, i tried to install each service separately, that is httpd alone first, then php but still got the same error for php-mysql as seen below;

bob@centos-host ~ ➜ sudo yum install -y php-mysql
Last metadata expiration check: 0:12:02 ago on Thu Aug 18 01:32:28 2022.
No match for argument: php-mysql
Error: Unable to find a match: php-mysql

What do I do please?

Thank you.

Hi @aadefolaju

A quick google search reveals that the mysql extension for php is no longer called php-mysql. It is now called php-mysqlnd

bob@centos-host ~ ➜  sudo yum install -y php-mysqlnd
