如何配置php以启用pdo并在CentOS上包含mysqli？

Question

PHP Version 5.3.3 on CentOS (x86_64, RHEL 6)

Apparently my PHP installation was configured to exclude Mysqli and disable PDO for some reason. Therefore, I believe this is what's causing them to not work when I try to use the php command from the shell. I can load mysqli and pdo via HTTP just fine, but they don't work from shell. How do I enable these components and what are the risks in doing so?

Configure Command:

Answer 1

You might just have to install the packages.

yum install php-pdo php-mysqli

After they're installed, restart Apache.

httpd restart

or

apachectl restart

Answer 2

mysqli is provided by php-mysql-5.3.3-40.el6_6.x86_64

You may need to try the following

yum install php-mysql-5.3.3-40.el6_6.x86_64
