Hello Newsgroup,
I have redhat 3.0 Enterprise, and mysql (3.58.xxx more or less)
installed from a redhat rpm,
and php 4.3.9 (installed from an rpm) - I can access data from my mysql
db using php and the "pear" Db .php. I recently upgraded my Apache to
2.2 and installed (more or less) PHP 5.2 as well - neither of these
installs were from a Redhat rpm, I downloaded the tarballs, extracted,
configed, make, etc.
Apache seems to work fine (but not with the php 4.3.9 rpm). I set the
httpd.conf file to access php 5 (libphp5.so) and can display PHP 5.2.0
info using phpinfo(). But... I cannot access any data in my mysql
database (/usr/local/share/DB.php) from the "pear". And it does not
appear that phpinfo() is reading the php.ini file. I have two php.ini
files, one in /etc (redhat rpm location), and another in
/usr/local/lib/php.ini. I have edited and changed both these files,
but the "changed" items (like default
mysql.socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock) do not show up in the phpinfo()
page. I have even renamed each php.ini file so there is no php.ini
file (like php_ini), and the phpinfo() data still displays! this is in
php 5.2.0. In 4.3.9 - all is well - the file (/etc/php.ini) is read,
etc, and I can access the db.
I have attempted to set the PHP 5.2 switch to the location where my
mysql binary is (/usr/bin/mysql), but still nothing seems to work. My
guess is that I am not selecting the correct place for PHP 5.2 to hook
up with my already installed (but old) redhat my sql rpm.
Any ideas on how I can get PHP 5.2 to work with my version of mysql?
Or should I remove the existing mysql rpm, and start fresh with a later
version of mysql - and install it from tarball, etc Then I would at
least know where the mysql stuff is. Redhat seems to spread the
package info all over the place.
Help!
