Don't use mysql_* its deprecated, so use mysqli_* or PDO. Given example here:-

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL); // check all errors
ini_set('display_errors',1); // display errors
$conn = mysqli_connect('host name','user name','password','database name');//database connection code
$product_data = array(); // create an empty array
if($conn){
 $prod = mysqli_query($conn,"SELECT * FROM products");
    while ($all = mysql_fetch_array($prod)) {
        $product_data[] = array('product_id'=>$all['pid'], 'product_name'=>$all['pname'],'product_desc'=>$all['pdesc'], 'product_price'=>$all['pprice'], 'product_img'=>$all['pimage']); // assignment
    }
    echo "<pre/>";print_r($product_data); // print product_data array
}else{
  echo mysqli_connect_error(); // show what problem occur in database connectivity
}
mysqli_close($conn); // close the connection
?>
