    Connection issue...

    I'm receiving the following error.

    Database error in vBulletin :

    mysql_connect(): The mysql extension is deprecated and will be removed in the future: use mysqli or PDO instead

    I recently received the following support ticket from my server:

    This update is meant to provide advance notification for the next event of our DFW environment maintenance – web node transition.

    Our status page provides additional details on the planned order of events during our DFW maintenance.

    Event: Web Node Transition

    Maintenance Details: - Current PHP versions (5.3 and 5.4) will be updated to PHP 5.6. - ASP.NET 4.0 services will be upgraded to ASP.NET version 4.5.2. - User sessions may need to be re-initiated during the time of a cluster's transition but sites will remain accessible (live) throughout this process. - Updated web clusters will begin handling site traffic on the scheduled date and going forward. - New sites created during this transition period will be updated to the new technology types (PHP 5.6/ASP.NET 4.5.2). --------


    ---------------------------------


    It's unclear to me what I need to update in order to get my site back on track. Everything I've tried has failed.
