Hey- I'm trying to install PHP5 with mysql support and I keep running into the same problem over and over again. I run the configuration with this: --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql and without fail I get this every time: ext/mysql/php_mysql.o: In function `zif_mysql_create_db': /home/tech/upgrades/php-5.2.5/ext/mysql/php_mysql.c:1227: undefined reference to `mysql_create_db' ext/mysql/php_mysql.o: In function `zif_mysql_drop_db': /home/tech/upgrades/php-5.2.5/ext/mysql/php_mysql.c:1266: undefined reference to `mysql_drop_db' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [sapi/cgi/php-cgi] Error 1 What am I doing wrong here? I'm running mysql 5.0.45 located at /usr/local/mysql which would my my lib directory at /usr/local/mysql/lib I have updated my ld.so.conf file to point to that and I'm still running into issues here.

Did you get any errors when configure ran? I'm not sure if it will stop configure working when it can't find a library you want to compile in or if it just ignores the error and keeps going. -- Postgresql & php tutorials http://www.designmagick.com/
