title: MySQLi is NOT missing
body: <p>I am trying to write PHP that connects to a MySQL database. My debugger tells that class <code>mysqli</code> cannot be found. But my <code>phpinfo()</code> has <code>conf.d/mysqli.ini</code> on list of parsed <code>.ini</code>.</p>
  
  <p>To debug this code I am using <a href="http://projects.eclipse.org/projects/tools.pdt" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Eclipse PDT</a>, with <a href="http://xdebug.org" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Xdebug</a>. Why would the debugger not be able to find 'mysqli'??</p>
  
  <p>NOTE: I am not sure if this is relevant, but this is configuration of the PHP executable:</p>
  
  <pre><code>PHP executable: /usr/bin/php5
  Additional .ini:  /etc/php5/conf.d/xdebug.ini
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Below is the actual error message from the console:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Fatal error: Class 'mysqli' not found in /var/www/RBDM_Project/WebContent/login.php on line 8
  
  Call Stack:
      0.0099     333880   1. {main}() /var/www/RBDM_Project/WebContent/login.php:0
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And the line 8 of the code: </p>
  
  <pre><code> $db = new mysqli("URL","user","password","db");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>UPDATE: I figured I might throw in a screenshot form phpinfo()
