...but apparently I don't have MySQL installed.
Using php -m, I get:
<snip>
libxml
mbstring
mime_magic
mysql
mysqli
ncurses
</snip>
But using phpinfo() I get:
Configure Command: <snip>--without-mysql' '--without-gd'</snip>
As I mentioned, I want to recompile PHP with the Oracle SOs. But the install I have is the configuration that came with Fedora 4 when I installed it. What would have been nice and convenient would have been to take the configure command shown in phpinfo() and add --with-oracle=$ORACLE_HOME but if I do that it looks like I'm going to break MySQL.
Therefore, logical conclusion, is that the "configure command" in phpinfo() is wrong.
How I establish how this PHP is built - I just want to build PHP as it is now (because it does everything I need) plus Oracle.
Or, as an alternative answer, is there a --with-everything-you-might-need-but-not-everything option? Because part of my problem is that I don't know what half the configure options are for and I don't want to spend the next couple of days recompiling PHP and finding something isn't working :-)
Thanks for any pointers
