Hi TheSin,

Your feedback is much appreciated.

Great, that confirms my testing.

Well, changing the default properly to mysqli AND making this change is
then a good way forward I believe. Cacti SHOULD be calling libphp-adodb
with mysqli, but if some admin forgets to make the change in an already
installed setup, having the package behave properly is extremely nice.

Thanks again.

Paul
