    Did it connect to MySQL on the development machine? If so then probably either missing the driver on the server or something up with the connection string.

    Otherwise you could look at using Pdo or mysqli.

    yes it connected on the development machine (window 8) using mysqli on iis.
    Basically on the production machine(windows 2008) it is connecting to the database with odbc_connect but not mysqli_connect.

    In PHP 5.0 - 5.2 on Windows the mysqli extension is not enabled by default, so the php_mysqli.dll DLL must be enabled inside of php.ini

    details:
