MYSQL Cgi Linux

[paolo]

Ops . I got the solution...(after several attempts)
 The database type has to be written in lowercase ..... mysql   instead of
MYSQL
Now the following command works from a my CGIstack:
put revOpenDatabase("mysql",dbhost,dbdatabase,dbuser,dbpassword) into
dbresult
great Rev

ciao Paolo
