Add mysql support


Recommended Posts

Hello there guys, noob here at phpfreaks.

 

I have read about mysql support from php. I read that it comes disabled or not included in versions 5.0 and above. The thing is that i am trying to run cacti and this program requires that i have php working with mysql. I also have php already installed on the server, so i just need to add the mysql support required to make cacti work. I know i have to include --with-mysql and --with-gd according to the manual and the errors. My question here is: where do i perform this ./configure --with-mysql --with-gd? I tried looking for the directory path of php, but i don't know where to perform this command, and the make later on, i guess.

 

I also want to know if by performing this, php configures only those options or keeps the other options that have been configured when it was initially compiled, adding just these two. Here's what i get when readind the phpinfo() output. The lines that i think are missing so that php works with mysql are bold and red, for informational purposes.

It's fedora core 4. I installed it using yum, but obviously i cannot tell yum to install modules as if i was compiling it from source.

 

Now, i managed to remove php and downloaded version 5.2. I want to install it so that cacti works and php works with mysql. I tried to install but i am getting the following error message after performing ./configure:

Here's the command:

./configure --with-apxs2=/www/bin/apxs --enable-sockets --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-zlib-dir=/usr/include --with-gd

 

And here's the error message:
