I have php installed, but I didnt install it with mysql support. So now I am back tracking trying to install it with mysql support.

when I run the following command.

./configure --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --with-mysql

I get the following error.

configure: error: Cannot find MySQL header files under yes.
Note that the MySQL client library is not bundled anymore.

I have also tried several variations on the configure script trying to point it to the mysql headers. But with no luck.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

install your distros mysql-devel package (looks like you're running mdk, so urpmi mysql-devel) .....assuming you're running the mysql rpm's from your distro and havn't installed upgraded ones from mysql.com

the header files are located at mysql.com, just look around the rpms.

i have the same problem. so i downloaded the library & header files rpm, but what commands do i do now? i don't have a yes directory, only an executable in /usr/bin. thanks!
