I'm trying to follow along with the book _PHP fast & easy web development_ and I am pretty frustrated. I've tried installing, after make install I get output on the screen just above the License block stting that "something is probably screwy here..." and I am advised to review debug.log, and if I am unable to fix the problem, to post the debug log here. So, if you can help, muchas appreciadas. Best, Jud The problem seems to be that "cannot find -lmysqlclient". I am running RH7 on a Celeron 733, with MySQL 3.22.32, which is working, and Apache 1.3.12, which is working.
