I get this error trying to refresh admins list from sql
19:09:14 L 02/03/2008 - 19:028: [admin-sql-prefetch.smx] Could not connect to database "default": Driver "mysql" not found

[SM] Displaying 5 extensions:
[01] Top Menus (1.0.0.1772): Creates sorted nested menus
[02] SDK Tools (1.0.0.1865): Source SDK Tools
[03] BinTools (1.0.0.1656): Low-level C/C++ Calling API
[04] GeoIP (1.0.0.1656): Geographical IP information
[05] <FAILED> file "dbi.mysql.ext.so": No such file or directory
Why i cant turn on sql managed admins plugins? And there IS file dbi.mysql.ext.so under extensions directory and it has all permissions to run. What could be wrong?

So i found this article ( http://bugs.alliedmods.net/?do=details&task_id=801 ), but it doesnt help me. i have libz and zlib libraries already installed (Debian etch Linux). But they are under /lib64 not /lib32 I tried to symlink libz.so.1 from /lib64 to /lib32 but sourcemod still says the same - [05] <FAILED> file "dbi.mysql.ext.so": No such file or directory

Do you have SSH access? If so, as the user srcds runs as, do the following commands:

cd <srcds>
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=".:bin:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"
ldd -d -r <game>/addons/sourcemod/extensions/dbi.mysql.ext.so

And show the output. <srcds> should be the path that contains srcds_run and <game> should be the game's folder.

Hello, I'm having the same issue right now, the above procedure didnt help me, it still says:

15:15:43 L 01/04/2010 - 17:15:58: [sql-admin-manager.smx] Could not connect to database: Driver "mysql" not found
15:15:43 [SM] Could not connect to the database.

Maybe i need some linux packages that i dont know?

This happened after linux reinstall. I hope someone will help me

EDIT: solved

I know this thread is fucking old but I encountered this problem and wanted to leave a solution.

First of all check the reason for this error by typing this in the server console during operation:

sm exts list

in my case it showed that zlib wasn't found, go figure I remembered that the steam appliation is 32 bit while my server is 64.

so the solution is to add the i386 architecture and install the zlib1g:i386 package.
