[NTLUG:Discuss] PHP on RedHat 5.2

[Kyle_Davenport@compusa.com]

ok, it's been a while, but I know I had to do something else besides that...

just askin!: you did restart apache?

you should trying starting it from the command line - or looking at the startup
log and it  will say if it loads those.

Howdy!

   I've just gotten started playing with PHP on my RH5.2 system.  I'm
playing with phpgen0.8 to generate web-style frontends to a number of
my MySQL databases that I've moved off of Micros~1 Access.  I thought
I had enabled Apache (version 1.3.3) to use the libphp3.so and phplib
but uncommenting the following lines in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:

    LoadModule php_module         modules/mod_php.so
    LoadModule php3_module    modules/libphp3.so

    AddModule mod_php.c
    AddModule mod_php3.c

Oh, and I also tweaked the srm.conf file to enable php related extensions.
The modules mod_php.so and libphp3.so were in the proper place all the
time but I hadn't enabled them.  This should turn 'em on.

Well, at least I think I've done that.  The problem is that PHP seems to
run well until I try to use mysql_connect().  The displayed error message
is:

Fatal error: Call to unsupported or undefined function mysql_connect()
         in /home/httpd/html/phpgen/pregen.php3 on line 88

MySQL is definitely running an accessable by the host/user/password
as given in the call to mysql_connect().  Me thinks me hasn't setup
something in Apache to enable PHP to access the MySQL server.  Do I
need to recompile Apache for this?  Am I missing some permissions
somewhere?

Can any of you PHP/MySQL/Apache experts help out here?

'preciate it!
