How can you install those stupid mssql functions on Fedora? I've been through a bunch of useless FAQs and manuals on http://www.freetds.org/ and, surprise, they are totally useless.

I did: yum install freetds, ./configure, make, make install, make clean, rpm -ivh php-mssql-5.0.4-10.1.i386.rpm and nothing works. I still get

Fatal error: Call to undefined function mssql_connect() in /var/www/vhosts/intellipass.com/httpdocs/testpage.php on line 3

WTF? How do you install mssql functions for PHP? Can't I just move a .so file into /usr/lib/php/modules and restart apache? Help!

This is one reason why PHP sucks chaps. Need to add a plugin? Recompile PHP!

Glad you got it sorted though. Smiling
