Uncaught exception 'PDOException' with message 'could not find driver'

[MtotheC]

Hi,

I have been getting the error listed below on a site of mine:

"

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'PDOException' with message 'could not find driver' in /home/vortexdn/public_html/tardis/navigation.php:9 Stack trace: #0 /home/vortexdn/public_html/tardis/navigation.php(9): PDO->__construct('DB_DRIVER:host=...', 'DB_USER', 'DB_PASS') #1 {main} thrown in /home/vortexdn/public_html/tardis/navigation.php on line 9"

The script being used is (blocked out usernames and passwords :

"<?php
$DB_DRIVER="mysql";
$DB_HOST="localhost";
$DB_PORT="3306";
$DB_NAME="-";
$DB_USER="-";
$DB_PASS="-";

$pdo = new PDO(DB_DRIVER.':host='.DB_HOST.';port='.DB_PORT.';dbname='.DB_NAME, DB_USER, DB_PASS);
$stmt = $pdo -> prepare ("SELECT * FROM `rezzers` WHERE `ObjectName` = :param");
$stmt -> execute(array(":param" => $myParam));
$res = $stmt -> fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
foreach($res as $row) {echo $row['myField']."^";}

?>"

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

Any info on what may be causing this? I did a "php -i | grep -i pdo" command in terminal and came back with this:

Do you have a php.ini in the account that does not contain the same configuration as the default php.ini? If you create a php.ini and, for example, just put 'memory_limit = 64M' you will overwrite other runtime settings set by the default php.ini.
