Subject: RHEL5/PHP/MySQL problem

Hi I've just upgraded a server to RHEL5 which I'm trying to configure as a LAMP.
My problem is that php is not working with mysql (phpinfo is reporting '--without-mysql' ).

does anyone know how I can get these two talking? I'm quite new to the dev side but have had it working fine on FC5 and RH7

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

How did you install php and mysql? And what version of each are you running?

Did you install mysql-server? Install mysql-server and start mysqld.

The package you need to install is most likely called "php-mysql"
You will also need "MySQL-client"
In any case, "yum search php mysql" should get you the relevant packages.

...or, for faster results, he could take the easy and lazy way: "yum install mysql*"
