Description
Hello there,
I set up T3 v7.2 to run with PostgreSQL but I need a fallback to MySQL. To do so I changed LocalConfiguration.php parameters to point to a working mysql server, but backend login form returns "Database connect not successful. Connecting to the database with given settings failed. Please check."
Have I forgotten to change parameters or is it a bug?
Thanks by advance,
Alex

Is there some configuration for the default DBAL handler in your LocalConfiguration.php?
'EXTCONF' => array (
'dbal' => array (
'handlerCfg' => array (
'_DEFAULT' => array(
'type' => 'adodb',
'config' => array(
'driver' => 'postgres',
),
),
),
),
)
If you switch to MySQL this needs to be changed to the mysql driver too.
At this moment, it works with PostgreSQL, my LocalConfiguration.php is this:
'EXTCONF' => array(
'dbal' => array(
'debugOptions' => array(
'enabled' => TRUE,
'numberRows' => TRUE,
'printErrors' => TRUE,
),
'handlerCfg' => array(
'_DEFAULT' => array(
'type' => 'adodb',
'config' => array(
'driver' => 'postgres',
),
),
),
),
),
I'm trying switching to mysql driver but, surprisingly, it complains about the use of mysql_connect function. I thought mysqli or PDO were already in use.
If I read it correctly you have two choices for switching back to MySQL:
1 - Set the key 'type' to 'native'
2 - Use 'mysqli' as driver type, not 'mysql', the latter uses the deprecated mysql_* functions
