Your PHP MySQL library version 5.0.51a differs from your MySQL server version 5.1.30.

I’m setting up a drupal test environment on my local machine and thought I’d give bitnami a try. The installation worked as advertised. However, when I get into phpmyadmin I get the following warning message “Your PHP MySQL library version 5.0.51a differs from your MySQL server version 5.1.30.”. I have seen this error in the bitnami forum from last year indicated that this is a known error and you’re working on it. What kind of problems might this cause and when do you anticipate resolving it?

Hi,

The problem is that the PHP library for mysql is different to the version that we ship in the Stack. Currently we did not notice any application error.

This is a new computer with a new implementation of PHP and mysql. Both these products are from your stack. I am concerned when I get a message saying that this could cause unpredictable results. Will this be corrected in a future version of the stack?

Hi,

Yes we know, but we use the compiled libraries from PHP for Windows and that’s is the cause that the mysql library for PHP is adifferent version than the MySQL database. This will be fixed in future stacks for sure.
