Hi all,

I'm running the drupal 7.7 install script. I get to the step where I set up the database and the only option listed is SQLite. I don't understand why MySQL isn't listed. I'm running an older version of Drupal (5.x) on the same server and its worked for years with MySQL so I don't get why its not even an option when I try to install.

Some advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Any ideas on this one? I still haven't cracked it.

Hi,

Just had the same problem after I upgraded the OS of my NAS.
Some searching in this forum found this issue with comments: http://drupal.org/node/940466
Then I checked the pdo_mysql extension in my NAS php settings and after that it worked.

Not sure if you have the same problem, but it could point you in a direction to search...
