MySQL Tutorials - Herong's Tutorial Examples

∟PHP Programs and MySQL Server

This chapter provides notes and tutorial examples on MySQL server and PHP programs. Topics include configuring the PHP engine to use the MySQL extension library, commonly used MySQL functions, running SQL statements to create table, insert rows and fetch rows.

Configuring PHP for MySQL Server Access

MySQL Authentication Method "caching_sha2_password"

mysqli_connect() and Other MySQL Functions

MySqlLoop.php - MySQL Functions Test

Takeaways:

• PHP supports MySQL through an extension library, php_mysqli.dll. The old MySQL extension php_mysql.dll is no longer supported.
• Configuring the PHP engine to work with a MySQL server is simple - just turn on the extension=php_mysqli.dll in php.ini.
• The php_mysqli.dll extension does not support the new "caching_sha2_password" authentication method yet. You need create new user account for PHP scripts with the old "mysql_native_password" authentication method.
• A database connection resource must be created with the mysqli_connect() function.
• You can execute any SQL statements using the mysqli_query() function.
