I am currently trying to connect a web application to my mysql database but I just keep getting a 'Class mysqli' not found error.

Here's the code:

$servername = "localhost";
$username = "sparkbusiness_jamie";
$password = "Firefrazzy01";

// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password);

// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
    die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
} 
echo "Connected successfully";

If anyone can help it would be appreciated.

Have you written this within another class? Or just in a simple page? – Indrasis Datta Sep 23 '16 at 16:52
`Sounds like you just need to install MySQLi.` – devpro Sep 23 '16 at 16:52
Have you installed and enabled the mysqli library on your server? – M. Eriksson Sep 23 '16 at 16:52
you can use the follwing command line instruction to find out if it is installed: `php -m | grep -i mysql` – bryonbean Sep 23 '16 at 16:55
