I tried to follow these instructions loosely in order to upgrade the new dedicated server to MySQL 4, and PHP 5. I say “loosely” because the new server is running Fedora Core 2 not Fedora Core 3. Anyway, I proved once again that a little bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing. The MySQL upgrade went okay. I should have been content and left it there. But no, I wanted to upgrade to the latest and greatest version of PHP while I was at it. Now, I can’t even get back to a working version of PHP4. It seems that Apache no longer recognizes the MySQL extension.

cannot load mysql extension,
please check PHP Configuration
Documentation

So, if there are any rpm wizards out there who can give me a bit of advice, please let me know.
