problems after mysql updgrade

fetch

I just upgraded from mysql 4.0? to 4.1.7.

When I try to restart apache, i get the following error:

Cannot load /usr/local/apache2/modules/libphp5.so in server: libmysqlclient.so.12: cannot open shared objec file: No such file or directory

During the upgrade libmysqclient.so.12 was replaced by libmysqlclient.so.14. I've looked into the shared compat rpms but they seem to be for mysql 3 > mysql 4 upgrades.

Do I need to reconfigure php5 to use the new mysql client library?

try renaming the so.14 to so.12 - if that dont work - then i dont know what will, sorry!

I fixed the original problem by rebuilding (is that the right term?) php5. I used the --with-mysql option, and the apache apxs option, but now I have a new problem. I get the following error when I try to run mysql functions:

Call to undefined function mysql_connect() in /usr/local/apache2/htdocs...

I did not specify a directory in --with-mysql. Could this be the problem? I don't want to rebuild PHP again until I have some idea of what the problem is. I have googled the problem and several comments suggest that extension=mysql.so should be uncommented, but my php.ini (derived from php.ini-recommended) does not contain a unix dymanic extensions section. I hope I have not been too vague. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
