There are some error messages you missed as they flew by during that whole ./configure make make install thing. Re-do that part, only do things like this: ./configure --with-apxs=... --with-mysql=... 2>&1 > configure.output & make 2>&1 > make.output & make install 2>&1 > install.output & You'll be able to watch things happen by doing: tail -f configure.output (Hit control-C when it's done) and similarly for make.output and install.output When you're all done, search through configure.output and make.output for "Error" or "Warning" messages. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm
