Hello I did check the location - and moved the php.ini file to this 
location - /usr/local/apache2/php/lib - now it reads the file (php). 
 
I still am unable to connect to the db -my my.cnf file seems ok. 
I will make a change to my php page that accesses the db. 
 
If I run the older version of apache (2.0) and php 4.3.9 - all is well -  
i can diplay data on the php page. 
 
any ideas here??? 
 
Thanks,
