thanks I looked these links and  I did some googling...
I am using ubuntu 10.04  with mysql
couple of points to clear (sorry I am relativelly new  to freeswitch  world and  concepts)
 
what is dsn?
I am using  ubuntu linux  so  it must be "unixodbc" to be installed?
what is this "unixodbc-dev " then ?
where spidermonkey come in picture? do I need spidermonkey too if I installed   unixodbc? 
what is "core" and how different from ODBC?
 
thx

Configure MySQL so you can connect via ODBC. That means installing MyODBC, and unixodbc if you're on Linux, then setting up a DSN.

Hi
 
I think lua is the recomended/preferred for database connections and programming with freeswitch
 
1-- how can I connect to an existing mysql database (externally created and managed by php program -- contructed tables -rows- fields etc...) 
 
2-- how can I create  new mysql database  with freeswitch?
 
3-- how to check if required  lua components are  really  installed/working  for mysql db in freeswitch?
 
4-- if lua isn't a choice, which is the next best to handle  mysql  databases (javascript, perl etc..)
 
5-- any comprehensive  freeswitch  mysql db handling doc, links etc...?
thx
