Answer 1

It simply means what it says. To fix the issue, you will need to enable the MySQLi adapter by opening your php.ini file and uncommenting extension=php_mysqli.dll. Once done, restart Apache for the changes to take effect.

There may be an option on your VPS control panel, not sure but I would suggest looking there first.

If you do not have this option, or do not have access to the php.ini file then you will need to contact your hosting provider
