Fix this mssql_connect() error

Asked by Rachel

Hey,

I installed LAMP server through Synpatic package manager.

I've worked with MySQL but not MS SQL. So when I use mssql quires on my php code.

I get below error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function mssql_connect() in /var/www/page.php on line 2

When I checked my phpinfo, I saw only mysql but not mssql.

Help me to fix this error and get connected to the db of the MS SQL server.

Have you installed the php module for MSSQL? The M from LAMP is for MySQL.
