    Do you have root access to the server, meaning your username is "root?"

    Based on that statement alone, I'd guess you are not the server administrator
    as you would definitely know what "root" is and whether or not you had
    access to it. On that note, I am guessing that you are an end user
    with a shared Cpanel web hosting account somewhere.

    If that be the case ...

    You might be able to load PDO modules into PHP if your hosting provider
    setup support for this in PHP and also allows users to load "dynamic modules".

    Otherwise, your hosting provider (IE: someone with root privileges) will
    need to compile and add in the PDO module(s) for you.

    Hi Spiral,

    After i read your post I feel abit clear and know what's been happening now.

    Anyway, is it possible that i ask my host server to enable it for just only my website.

    Thank very much spiral, you are rock

    That really depends on how they have their PHP configured!

    On our systems, we can custom configure any account to any specification
    while maintaining security so there are no problems whatsoever but I have no idea how your hosting provider is configured so couldn't tell you.

    You'll need to contact them and ask about what you want to add there
