I'm trying to get PHP and MySQL working with Apache 1.3.9. I've been trying to follow a HotWired tutorial mentioned on the PHP home page, as well as info from the php and mysql sites themselves. So far, I have php working just fine, except that it doesn't recognize MySQL. I checked this out by making a little web page that calls phpinfo(), and the response page doesn't say anything about MySQL under Extensions (which I read it should if it recognizes MySQL). I've tried to install PHP a number of ways. First, I downloaded the tarball and followed the configure program, using the the --with-mysql= option to specify my MySQL directory. That didn't work. After that I reinstalled FreeBSD for another reason, and I tried again. This time I picked PHP and MySQL from the 'ports to install' menu, so they got installed along with the OS. That didn't work either. After that, I tried to find PHP on my disk, but I couldn't find anything (including mod_php3.c) anyhere. I was confused. So I grabbed PHP again form www.php.net, and tried again. This time I used the setup script instead of configure, but that didn't work. So I tried configure again with the --with-mysql option, and that isn't working. In fact, I'm getting 'unable to find mysql.h' errors, even though I'm using the right directory (and several variations). So what's my damn problem? And what can I do to fix it? The machine isn't currently a production server, so it doesn't really matter what it takes, as long as I can get things working. Thanks!
