disregard if you've already done this...

you might want to do a quick php app with phpinfo, to determine if/what version 
of mysql php sees.. it's quite possible that php isn't seeing/interfacing with 
mysql. 

php needs to not only be built with a version of mysql, but the php.ini file 
also needs to be setup correctly.

I _think_, given the version of MySQL you are using, you should compile in
and use the mysqli extension iso of the mysql extension.
                 ^----!

these to links may help you:

http://www.zend.com/php5/articles/php5-mysqli.php
http://be.php.net/mysqli

failing that you might want to check this page for an overview of funcs you
can use to determine exactly what is available, with more accuracy than 
phpinfo()
e.g.:

var_dump( extension_loaded("mysql"),
          extension_loaded("mysqli"),
          get_loaded_extensions(),
          get_extension_funcs ("mysql"),
          get_extension_funcs ("mysqli") );
