Kindly help me to install OJS. Thank you!

Hi @Shahid_Wasim_Malik,

Note that you accidentally posted your MySQL credentials in the stack trace! I’ve removed them from the post, but please change them immediately.

The relevant error message is:

Call to undefined function mysql_connect()

If you search this forum for that message, you’ll see lots of posts with the solution.
