mysql not available, although --with-mysql=shared,/usr'

[hiasl]

Hi,

I have to set up a php/mysql solution on a new server. This server has Apache 2.0, PHP 4.2.2 as module, and MySQL installed. However PHP scripts can't access the mysql db, I get the following error:

Call to undefined function: mysql_connect()

Normally this happens if the mysql extension is not enabled, but phpinfo() tells me that php was configured
"--with-mysql=shared,/usr' "

I also uncommented the line
extension=mysql.so
in php.ini and restarted Apache but without success.

Any other ideas I could try?

Thanks,
Matthias
