hi

i am trying to get php working with mysql for an apache web server.

I am using an SSH connection to make modifications and have RedHat 7.3 installed.I am using rpm's not source.

I also have MySQL 4.0.14 installed, apache 1.3.27 and php 4.1.2.

I tried to install php-mysql-4.1.2-7 but it gave me this:
# rpm -i php-mysql-4.1.2-7.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
libmysqlclient.so.10 is needed by php-mysql-4.1.2-7

So i installed MySQL-shared-4.0.14 which has libmysqlclient.so.12 but still the same error when tring to install php-mysql.

I have tried to install a higher version of php but that requires a newer version of glibc. I cant seem to get glibc upgraded at all.

the reason why this all started is because php gave my an error:
Fatal Error mysql_connect() unknown function
or something like that

please help i am a linux newbie

i solved the problem myself
i had to load old libraries with MySQL-shared-compat
then i could install php-mysql

and now i can access mysql via php/apache!!!
