Not familiar with using PHP in Eclipse, but it sounds as if your module is
not loading the MySQL extension. Try phpinfo() on both systems to see where
it's reading the ini from, and how the paths are setup. Make sure the
webserver isn't running chroot (or that the chroot environment is correctly
configured).
