I am trying to install RoundCube webmail application on my Arch Linux LAMP server.
I have everything installed and running fine as far as I can tell. Postfix and Dovecot work perfect using my Thunderbird client but I need to access the email server from home.
I have an index.html page configured in /srv/http that I can access from anywhere in the world with an Internet connection. I finally installed PHP and MySQL. I tested PHP from Apache and it appears to be working great. I started MySQL and locked down the root user fro MySQL and created a generic user and database for 'RoundCube'. Now when I go to the RoundCube web installer, it does not detect any running databases on my server. I don't understand why? I followed the directions perfectly and when I try the same thing on a CentOS server, it works.
Here is the screenshot (http://yfrog.com/7fmysqlwp) showing the installer detecting PHP but not MySQL. If MySQL is running, why would this not be detected...???
Hi there, I found this other thread because I was having the same problem as you. It solved my problem.

Ultimately this did it for my CentOS version:
yum install php-mysql.x86_64
Obviously this will differ on how to install it on your OS.
