Uncaught Error: Class 'PDO' not found

using
new PDO('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=db_name', $user, $pass);

getting Uncaught Error: Class 'PDO' not found.

when echo phpinfo() I don't see PDO on the Configuration section.
on the terminal when doing php -m I do see PDO.

What am I missing?

Hello, I just saw this post, and it's probably too late. But there are different configuration files for the command line and the PHP running on Apache. That is why when you do the php -m from the commandline you see it. When looking at the echo php() output, you'll see the location of the php.ini being loaded, go into there and you can enable PDO. Be sure to sudo service apache2 restart to make the setting take effect.

Also, since it seems like Nick has abandoned this product, I'd like to direct you to my variation called Cognac box, which you can find at: https://github.com/reddingwebpro/cognacbox -- it is running currently supported versions of both Ubuntu and PHP which might provide for a better experience and I actively monitor the issue forum over there. We just released another version with more patches yesterday. Best of luck!
