slackware 10: php not working with mysql

[fatTrav]

I have the standard mysql/apache/php isntalled from the Slackware 10 isntaller.

phpinfo() returns that it was configured with: './configure' '--prefix=/usr' '--disable-static' '--with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs' '--sysconfdir=/etc' '--enable-discard-path' '--with-config-file-path=/etc/apache' '--enable-safe-mode' '--with-openssl' '--with-mhash' '--enable-bcmath' '--with-bz2' '--with-pic' '--enable-calendar' '--enable-ctype' '--with-gdbm' '--with-db3' '--enable-dbase' '--enable-ftp' '--with-iconv' '--with-exif' '--with-gd' '--enable-gd-native-ttf' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr' '--with-png' '--with-gmp' '--with-mysql=shared,/usr' '--with-pgsql=/usr/local/pgsql' '--with-gettext=shared,/usr' '--with-expat-dir=/usr' '--with-xml' '--enable-wddx' '--with-mm=/usr' '--enable-trans-sid' '--enable-shmop' '--enable-sockets' '--with-regex=php' '--enable-sysvsem' '--enable-sysvshm' '--enable-yp' '--enable-memory-limit' '--with-tsrm-pthreads' '--enable-shared' '--disable-debug' '--with-zlib=/usr'

However if I scroll down that page to view the loaded modules, pgsql is loaded just fine but there is no MySql.

Google'ing returnd nothing super helpful, at least that I found.

% php -r 'echo mysql_connect()."\n";'

MySQL did NOT work straight out of the box with the install. I had to change the perms and groups of the mysql dirs in /lib/mysql to even get mysqld to start. Before I did that, it would just exit right away. Mysqld runs just fine now.

The end goal is to setup phpMyAdmin. Any information on how to get php to force load this module is appreciated.

Oh, and in my php.ini (which is the stanard one for slackware) i do load the mysql.so in the dynamic extensions section.

resolved it myself.

apparantly in my php.ini i had
extensions_dir = "/usr/lib/php/extensions"

inside that dir was a mysql.so, but also a folder no-debug-non-zts-20020429 which had another mysql.so inside it. i appended that directory name to my extensions_dir line and restarted apache. everything works.
