Hello,

I've got a Problem with my JMS-Master Joomla Backend configuration. I'm unable to set the database type. The dropdown list just offers "none". The same in every Slave configuration.

I added $dbtype = 'mysql'; manually in the configuration.php, it was emtpy before. If I create a new Slave now, it works - until I make a change in a Slaves Backend configuration (eg. changing the site title). The only option for the database type is "none", too. And it saves this setting to its configuration.php. In this case I'm getting an "Unable to load Database Driver:" -Error in JMS-Master.

I'm using JMS 1.2.86 and Patches definition version 1.2.81, Joomla Version 2.5.3

I'd be very grateful for help

Can you clarify in which menu you try to get the list of Database type ?

Is this in the Site / Global Configuration / Server tab, Database setting / Database type ?

Or during the isntallation of a fresh slave site / step 4 - databasse / where the database type combo is displayed ?

I suspect that the reason is due to a permission issue somewhere in the /libraries/joomla/database/database directory to access the list of Database type available.

I suppose that if it can not read or get the list, the Database type is empty.

So check the permissions.

Another possible reason is that your apache does not contain the MySQLi and MySQL apache module installed.
In this case, as the API is not installed in your apache, Joomla consider that it is not available.
