In your configuration line (how php was configured then compiled), you
have...

--with-mysqli=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config

That is why you are getting undefined function errors. Your version of
php is using mysqli, not mysql. You have two options: a) Recompile php
or b) Change all mysql_* functions to their counterparts in mysqli_*
