If you are runing your own vps/dedi change your php.ini and make sure you have the extension for mysqli.dll uncommented. There are others in the file which can be uncommented also.

Using a vps linux . i was trying to install php my admin . first it asked for php5 , after installing that it asked for this

On a plain VPS use yum to install the mysqli module

yum install php-mysql
yum install php-mysqli

You have to restart the webserver for new modules to take affect.

On a cPanel server, use the 'easyapache' script that cpanel offers or use the WHM --> EasyApache option, to compile PHP with the mysqli module.
