Luis,

Thanks for the reply.  I have been away from the machine for a while and 
am only now getting to run these commands.

php --version ->
PHP 5.1.6 (cli) (built: Nov  3 2006 07:27:53)
Copyright (c) 1997-2006 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.1.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2006 Zend Technologies

rpm -qa | grep -i mysql ->
mysql-5.0.27-1.fc5
mysql-server-5.0.27-1.fc5
perl-DBD-MySQL-3.0007-1.fc5
php-mysql-5.1.6-1.2
snort-mysql+flexresp-2.6.1.1-4.fc5

The output of phpinfo( ) includes the following. I guess the '- 
-without-mysql' is the main problem - 
"
magic' '--without-sqlite' '--with-libxml-dir=/usr' '--with-xml' 
'--with-apxs2=/usr/sbin/apxs'  --without-mysql' '--without-gd' 
'--without-odbc' '--disable-dom' '--disable-dba' '--without-unixODBC' 
'--disable-pdo' '--disable-xmlreader
"

Based on your mail it looks like I'm not going anywhere until I get mysql 
support added/included to my php install.  I originally didn't have 
php-mysql installed, but I added it before running the rom query above.  I 
retried the setup script, but unfortunately I still get the same errors.

Any other suggestions ?

Thanks,

David

Hi,

the PHP interpreter generates the errors you see on apache's error_log. 
The error is saying your php can't find the mysql_pconnect function so:

1. What version of php do you have? (use php --version)
2. Is it compiled with php support or have php-mysql? (create a script 
only with phpinfo() inside and/or run rpm -qa | grep -i mysql if you're on 
an rpm based system)
3. what happens if you create a little script just to open a connection to 
mysql? does it work? (just call mysql_pconnect, then close)

Good luck

Luis

Sorry, shortly after posting to the list I did some further research and 
found this in the error_log for Apache - 
'PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined function mysql_pconnect() in 
/var/www/html/adodb/drivers/adodb-mysql.inc.php on line 376' 

This line is repeated for multiple attempts so I guess this is part of the 
problem. 

Any suggestions ?  I am connecting to a mysql database, but it looks like 
it is the function calll itself that is the problem rather than the 
connection itself. 

Thanks, 

David
