Hi there :-)
can I connect CSVI to MySQL database instead of MSQLi?
thanks
Hello there,
You have 2 things mixed up. Your database will be MySQL but the client which talks from your webserver to the database can be MySQL or MySQLi and this must be the MySQLi client. The MySQL client is old and no longer maintained.
You can set this option in the global configuration of your website.
Kind regards,

Hi Roland,
the problem is that I set MySQLi in the joomla 3.4.8 global configuration, it doesn' t connect to the database
Hello,
That is either a bad server setup or the server is running old versions of things. Which PHP and MySQL versions are you running?
Kind regards,

PHP Version 5.6.19
db release: 5.0.92-enterprise-gpl-log
Hello,
The PHP version is good, up-to-date but the database is very old. Even the Joomla requirements require version 5.1 or higher. So it is really recommended to update. The best is to go to a recent version which is MySQL 5.6 or 5.7.
Kind regards,

Thank you man, I wil try to change the db version, but I don't know if aruba, my provider, will do it
Do you think the only solution is the db upgrade?
Hello,
I don't think so, I know so. You can't mix old and new without expecting issues. You should question your provider if they run old software and can't update.
Kind regards,
