First off, --with-mysql doesn't expect a mysql_config as an option
but the $prefix directory were mysql was installed.

but what does assuming your 'whatis database is upto date':

'locate php | grep bin' give?
'locate libphp' give?
'locate php' give?

And from those locates:
ls -laF <filenameoflocate>


My Guess:
you will have a:
/usr/bin/php
/usr/local/bin/php
/path/to/apache/modules/libphp(45).php

Once that is figured out, what about the extenstions? is there any
thing in your php.ini that specifies an extension_dir and/or
extension=something.so?

Last but should be first, check logs, turn on php.ini:error_log to
syslog, turn on display_startup_errors, check /var/log/messages, if
that doesnt work make sure php.ini:error_reporting is E_ALL. If
that doesn't work.. are you sure you are editing the correct
php.ini for the environment you are using?

This is for using php as a moudule, the error you are getting is
based on php ran as a cgi.

Ah, yeah, well, the thing you need to do is:
1) either get rid of the system's installation of php and do the
installation by hand. Getting rid of php via the systems
installation process. Be forwarned, do this with care.

2) use fc5
