Please could you second that and remove all doubts. There is a small difference, if configured using --with-mysql=shared when running make it makes a php binary AND the mysql.so. How does it make mysql.so, using some code that is provided with the PHP source or something that is already on the system (it looks for mysql on the system) ? If congigured --without-mysql and then run make it makes only the php binary then you need to make the mysql.so yourself (cd ext/mysql; phpize; configure; make). I did not understand how to make mysql.so myself ? Not that i will be doing this, but it is good to know and understand. Could you elaborate for the benifit of a beginner. Thx again But finally you'll get the same result. johannes
