>From the error it looks like PHP wasn't compiled with MySQL support,
but you have php3-mysql listed as something you installed.
Will with work with just mysql_connect()?
Create a page called info.php3 with just this in it:
<? phpinfo(); ?>
and load that page (info.php3) and scroll down and see what is listed
under MySQL. If it is supported it will be there.
