Enable mysqli for php.

Contact your host if you don't know how to do that.

 

[SamoanOnion]

my host has the mysqli module already enabled in PHP

 

[Paul B]

Not according to the error.

check phpinfo

This is what I have...

Is that viewing on the server or the instance that XF sees?

Try restarting Apache if any changes have been made.

 

[SamoanOnion]

that viewing is from the instance that XF sees, but I made no changes, thats the default whether its on PHP 5.4 or 7.x

check your cache and php config.
