Moodle 2 has under Development a 'Functional DB test' link. In order to get fullest use, must install xdebug for php. Here's how: Download: http://xdebug.org/download.php (I downloaded the 2.1.2 source [a tar.gz for a CentOS server] and compiled but there are binaries for Windows.)
http://moodle.tcea.org/docs/xdebugreadme.txt
NOTE: extensions for php on CentOS box are in: /usr/lib/php/modules/
To find where other such .so files might reside on your system: find / -name mysql.so
To see if xdebug successfully installed as an extension to php, run the Server -> PHP Info and look for xdebug section.
Also, need to add a line to your php.ini to load the xdebug extension as a zend extension in the Dynamic Extensions section of php.ini
zend_extension='/usr/lib/php/modules/xdebug.so'
Test to see if loaded properly: php -m
at the bottom of the output of showing modules loaded one will see:
[Zend Modules] Xdebug
Then access the version 2 Moodle as an admin level user and try out the DB test.
