MySQL compile problem

Hoping someone can elighten me. I am trying to compile B1 with MySQL support and I am getting the following compile error. I checked and the file /usr/local/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.6 exists, actually it's a soft link to libmysqlclient.so.6.0.0. System profile: Linux RH5.2 Apache 1.3.6 MySQL 3.22.22 php configure string: ./configure --with-mysql --with-apache=/usr/local/src/apache_1.3.6 --enable-track-vars Apache config.status: ./configure \ "--with-layout=Apache" \ "--prefix=/usr/local/apache" \ "--activate-module=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a" \ "--enable-module=proxy" \ "--enable-module=auth_dbm" \ "--enable-module=info" \ "--enable-module=rewrite" \ "$@" compile error: <=== src/ap ===> src/main gcc -c -I../os/unix -I../include -DLINUX=2 -I/usr/local/src/php-4.0b1 -I/usr/local/src/php-4.0b1/libzend -I/usr/local/src/php-4.0b1/libzend -I/usr/local/src/php-4.0b1 -DUSE_HSREGEX ../apaci gen_test_char.c gcc -DLINUX=2 -I/usr/local/src/php-4.0b1 -I/usr/local/src/php-4.0b1/libzend -I/usr/local/src/php-4.0b1/libzend -I/usr/local/src/php-4.0b1 -DUSE_HSREGEX ../apaci -o gen_test_char gen_test_char.o -Lmodules/php4 -L../modules/php4 -L../../modules/php4 -lmodphp4 -L/usr/local/src/php-4.0b1/ext/pcre/pcrelib -lpcre -L/usr/local/src/php-4.0b1/regex -lregex -lgdbm -L/usr/local/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient -lpam -ldl -lm -lcrypt -lnsl -lresolv -rdynamic -lm -lcrypt -lndbm ./gen_test_char >test_char.h ./gen_test_char: error in loading shared libraries libmysqlclient.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory make[3]: *** [test_char.h] Error 127 make[2]: *** [subdirs] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/apache_1.3.6/src' make[1]: *** [build-std] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/apache_1.3.6' make: *** [build] Error 2 Thanks, -J -- ---------------------------------------- | http://motosite.com | | Your motorcycle resource on the web! | ---------------------------------------- | Juan A.
