Zend Core 2.5 php 5.2.4 MySQL problem

[dico]

Since I upgraded my Zend Core to version 2.5 (new Optimizer ?) , I cannot make the calendar connect to my MySQL 5 database that was working fine under Zend Core 2.1.
easycalendar 6.3.24b

Have you configured your mySQL to use the old password format?

I found out the problem: I had deactivated the mysql.so extension in my php.ini since I am not using it anymore for my other applications:

extension=mysql.so
extension=mysqli.so

easyphpcalendar should have warned me explicitly whenever the mysql.so is not activated.

Thanks for the support, dico

The calendar will report verbatim any PHP/mySQL errors as provided by the system.
