Re: MySQL and MySQLi compiling

Here's the deal: "configure" needs to find *BOTH* 'mysql.h' files and 'mysql.so'/'mysql.lib' files *UNDER* the directory you feed it. Figure out where your mysql.h files are. Figure out where your mysql.lib/mysql.so files are. . Thanks for the response, in fact I can't find any mysql.lib files, and the only mysql.so I found is under perl directory.

I had tried /usr as the argument to --with-mysql , but it made no obvious change. I'm including some file paths that seem like the could be important below. Thanks, Chris [The only mysql.so that locate could find] /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so [root@plain php]# rpm -q --filesbypkg MySQL-devel
