OK, I installed php4-extensions and it made precisely zero difference (selected every-damn-thing-on-the-list) I have *no* idea what to do next, none. As far as I can see, phpinfo.php shows no sign of MySQL. Thus, I assume php is still braindead to the existence of MySQL. (I restarted MySQL before running phpinfo.php again "just in case") [mumble]
