mysql.so and php install question


So, my issue is mysql support. I'm hoping not to have to back the RPM that was installed with the server install since everything else works fine...

But, it seems that there is no mysql.so in the /usr/lib/php4, though I see there is one at:

/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so

But, I see from phpinfo() that the --with-mysql=shared,/usr flag is there.

Now, this was done with an RPM when I installed RHEL3. Should I back out the RPM and install from scratch?

From a friend of mine:

Quote:
You need to recompile PHP with MySQL support or add an RPM that will give it support. The mysql.so file that you listed is one compiled for use with Perl and wouldn't really work with PHP.
The RPM installed by RHEL3, php-4.3.2-11.ent.i386.rpm, does not seem to build with php/mysql support, than that leaves me with a source file, since I can't find any "publicly available" RPMs for RHEL3, does this sound right?

How do you think this will affect the currently installed Apache (httpd-2.0.46-32.ent.i386.rpm) and MySQL (mysql-3.23.58-1.i386.rpm)?


I'm willing to make mistakes, and the documents for a source install don't seem too difficult.

Does this make sense?


--Thanks!
