Note that --with-mysql=/usr/bin/mysql is obviously wrong. /usr/bin/mysql is the command-line MySQL client. --with-mysql takes the top-level directory below which the lib and header files can be found, so in your case you want --with-mysql=/usr A typical set of flags for building against libmysqlclient would be: --with-mysql=/usr --with-pdo-mysql=/usr --with-mysqli=/usr/bin/mysql_config Or as Ferenc suggested, use mysqlnd eg. --with-mysql=mysqlnd --with-pdo-mysql=mysqlnd --with-mysqli=mysqlnd --with-mysql-sock=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock -Rasmus
