Ronald, I ran into exactly the same problem you describe after compiling a new MySQL v4...
I think I can offer you an unsophisticated workaround (read: HACK!), but I'd defer to others on the list who know much more about this than I do... Your problem is because your new compile (or binary install) is expecting the layout previously used by mySQL v3. Until you sort this out, the quick fix is to make a link to libmysqlclient.so from where php 'thinks' it is. On SuSE SPARC, these directories work; you should interpret/infer/accommodate as required for your architecture: Create these links: /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.10 -> /usr/local/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.11 /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.11 -> /usr/local/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.11 This should make BOTH MySQL and PHP happy, but does not fix the problem with Apache - you may run into - about mod_auth_mysql. If anyone can offer us more, please do! LP > I have installed MySql 3.23.49, PHP 4.06, and Apache 1.3.20 successfully on > my RH 7.2 box.
