[Solved] Changing PHP version?

Your new PHP installation does not contain the legacy mysql drivers. This has probably been replaced by the newer mysqli library.

Try changing the config.inc.php setting driver in the database section to “mysqli” instead of “mysql”.

[database]

driver = mysql
host = localhost

password = ojs
name = ojs

; Enable persistent connections
persistent = Off

; Enable database debug output (very verbose!)
debug = Off
