Excuse if this sort of obvious thing, but is mysql running on your system?
PHP can't bring it up if it isn't already running.

Subject: [PHP-INST] compiling php
Hi, I've been playing around trying to get php and mysql to work together.
I've been trying to compile php as a CGI so that I can alter large databases
directly. I'm using PHP4.0.4, MySQL 3.23.30-gamma, RedHat7.0, Intel Celery
633. I've compiled both of the packages. I configured php with
the --with-mysql tag pointing to my mysql install
directory(/usr/local/mysql). Once a make is done I believe it defaults to
putting php in the /usr/local/bin directory. I write a script including
"#!/usr/local/bin/php -q" at the top. Next I open my php tags "<?php". I
write a simple script to connect to my mysql deamon, queary the database,
and return the results. When I run the script it keeps claiming
"mysql_connect is undefined". I compiled correctly, why is this happening?
