Hi,
I'm having issues with Database Connector PHP since some servers got updated to PHP version 7 Ubuntu Xenial uses php7 as a standard now.
It is not possible to create a connection to mysql databases (at least thats what I've tried)
Can you please help?

Hello, the extensions are PHP7 compatible.
Could you please explain what exactly do you mean by: "It is not possible to create a connection to mysql databases"? Please provide a little more detailed information about the issues.

Thank you Teodor for the quick reply.
The issue I'm having is - creating a database connection. I start with creating a connection file and a database connection. I can input the database dtails like localhost, database name etc. As soon as I click on "apply" or "OK" it is checking the connection and the I get a window, similar to this: www.dmxzone.com/support/22072/topic/60703/
(second screenshot from above)
"Error using this Database Connection"
Server response:

without a message. It is on our develop server which has been updated to Ubuntu xenial which uses php7 by default.
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php7.0

Can you please post a link to an empty PHP file, on your server containing:

<?php phpinfo(); ?> 

I am afraid ist is on our local network with an 192.168..IP address . I could provide the phpinfo() if it helps.
Moving the thing back to php 5.6 makes it work again, if no other settings are changed

Please provide your phpinfo then. There must be some server configuration issue, as if the extension works on PHP 5.6, it must be working on PHP 7.

OK, thanks. Just a moment

I created a pdf file here:

develop.rhc.at/files_from_user/phpinfo%28%29.pdf

Thanks, we are checking this now.

Hello,
In order for the error to be displayed in the connection window, please make sure to turn the "display_errors" setting ON.
Then we will be able to tell what causes the error.

I can't close the window by clicking OK, only by Abort. The file which is created shows this:

<?php
require('../../../dmxConnectLib/dmxConnect.php');


$app = new \lib\App();

$app->define(<<<'JSON'
{
"meta": {
"options": {}
},
"exec": {
"steps": "Connections/Intern"
}
}
JSON
);
?>

Can you post a screenshot of the error window?

So after enabling the display_errors: on, you still don't see the exact error there? Please restart the server and try again.

I restarted Apache service but the error stays. After checking the database connection the window pops up as shown. I can cancel the action but not save the action fiel because the connection credentials alre lost.

The error is there as there is a problem obviously. My question is - do you see the server response after enabling the display_errors setting on your server or not?

unfortunately not

Can you tell me how is your mysql host (localhost ? Ip? - the value you are using) and what is your db name?

Please check your email and try again.

Glad we got this fixed. Will there be an updated version, soon? With one of the last updates I had the modified database file overwritten (the one with error class instead of myerror class)

BTW php 7 is worth it! It is so much faster than 5

If the modified database file is in the configuration folder, as i explained in the mail, nothing will replace it, unless you reinstall the extension.
The fix will be included in the next update.
