    Solved!!!

    In actual fact all I had to do was to use the FC5 package manager (yum or yumex) to install php-mysql (and its dependencies), restart Apache and I’m up and running! Yay!

    Thanks to all especially whooami

    Now on to step 6 of the 5 minute install…. ahem…

    Thanks again

    OK Thanks for that.
    I’ve been looking at Apache Toolbox but it seems to want to remove my 5.1 versions of PHP to be replaced by 5.0.2 (I have run install.sh –update)

    Testing for PHP RPM… found! Please remove the rpm. EG: rpm -e php-5.1.4-1
    Testing for PHP IMAP RPM… not found.
    Testing for PHP LDAP RPM… found! Please remove the rpm. EG: rpm -e php-ldap-5.1.4-1
    Testing for PHP PGSQL RPM… not found.
    Testing for Apache RPM… not found.
    Testing for Apache Devel RPM… not found.
    Testing for Mod_Perl RPM… found! Please remove the rpm. EG: rpm -e mod_perl-2.0.2-5.1
    Testing for Mod_Perl Devel RPM… not found.
    [+] ** If your going to use an RPM package (like openssl) you better have the DEVEL rpm installed as well! **
    ———————————————————————–
    RPMs that will probably cause problems where found!
    Do you wish to continue anyway? (be careful) [y/n] n
    [root@ArthurDent Apachetoolbox-1.5.72]#

    Is this wise?

    Thanks again.

    OK – Sounds good. Before I go ahead and do it though – can you just confirm that it is the cause of my problem.

    Am I the only Fedora Core 5 user who has tried to install WordPress?

    Surely a standard install of FC5 with Apache, PHP, MySql etc would have them all talking to one another?

    There is nothing wrong with my php.ini or wp-config.php settings?

    Thanks again

    Ummm – The way I read it those are the configuration options that RedHat used to build the PHP installation on my system. I think Apache is running OK.

    Would rebuilding Apache solve my problem?

    Thanks again

    Thanks Whooami

    I’ve looked into Apache Toolbox and I might have a go in a minute – but before I do…

    Is my problem really with Apache or is it with PHP?

    I thought the test I was doing with the <?php phpinfo(); ?> was to test my PHP installation. Is that where my problem lies?

    Thanks again
