Can someone please help me build php with mysql support on CentOS. Have
installed MySql and that works okay. I have downloaded the latest version of
php and tried to build it but I keep getting errors about missing function
mysql_connect(). This appears to be caused by not having extensions=mysql in
the php.ini file. However when I build php it does not make a mysql.so file,
where does this come from? I have tried using the configure --with-mysql but
it still does not generate it. I have managed to get it from another
distribution but it does not work correctly due to incorrect versions of
shared libraries.
How do you build the mysql.so file?

Thanks

Jon
