I can't connect to MySQL. HELP - call global 'mysql_connect

[Bluebay]

When i have type "restart mysql" to the console, it says:

[19:06:21] restart: Requested by Console 
[19:06:21] restart: Resource restarting... 
[19:06:21] Stopping mysql 
[19:06:21] Starting mysql 
[19:06:21] ERROR: mysql/connection.lua:16: attempt to call global 'mysql_connect 
' (a nil value)

wiki: "This function is provided by the external module MTA-MySQL. You must install this module to use this function."

have you done it? (https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Mod ... ql_connect)

also, if you dont want to install the module, use this:

dbConnect 

[Bluebay]

So what i need to do? I need the modul, and i don't know what is the problem.

[50p]

You don't need the module. Just use native MTA MySQL functions.

https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Ser ... _functions

[Bluebay]

But the mode, what i use, need the module.

[50p]

If you have downloaded a resource which uses the module then you will have to install it. Follow this page to find out how: https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Modules/MTA-MySQL

[Bluebay]

But I have already installed it. It can be found at the 'modules' folder, and at the mtaserver.conf too.

(But i still get this error.)

[50p]

Follow the steps again. Restart the server if it's running. If I were you I would stop the server before editing the confing file.

Okay, i'm done. but it's already bad. There is my connection.lua file:
