Rather than tell me my question is too far off-topic from MySQL list,
would you please suggest another list that you know of?

Thanks, but if you are willing to help, here is my problem: I'm
attempting to get Apache, MySQL, and PHP working together on a RedHat
Linux system that I have total control of.  My "PHP fast&easy" book by
Meloni and its associated CD-ROM have been anything but "fast&easy."
MySQL and Apache installations go beautifully.  It's not till I try to
rebuild PHP to use MySQL and to work with Apache as a dynamic server
object (DSO) that everything falls apart.  I've tried numerous
distributions/versions, source versus RPMs, and every FAQ suggestion
that I can find.  Here is my latest error, and one that has surfaced
under several variations of installations I've tried:

After error-free rebuilds and installations of MySQL, Apache, and PHP, I
attempt to restart apache (it worked before rebuilding PHP) using
"./sbin/apachectl start" command.  I get this error message:

Syntax error on line 26 of /usr/local/apache_1.3.3/etc/httpd.conf:
Cannot load /usr/local/apache_1.3.3/libexec/libphp4.so int server:
/usr/local/apache_1.3.3/libexec/libphp4so: undefined symbol: uncompress.

./sbin/apachectl start: httpd could not be started

Line 26 just tells location of libphp4.so file.  It's where it's
supposed to be and seems OK except that it appears to have one (or
more?) unresolved symbols.
* Do I need to locate a pre-built version of libphp4.so and download
it?  If so, where might I find that?
* Do I need to learn to rebuild libphp4.so from its source?  If so,
where might I learn to do that?  And how come *I* need to do this when
(according to PHP book and FAQs) other persons trying the same thing
apparently don't have to do it?

I know I'm going to love MySQL if I can just get it to start working
with Apache and PHP.  I would deeply appreciate any help you could
offer.  Thanks in advance!
