4/4     Help PHP MySQL experts! I installed PHP5 and Pear and tried
        /usr/bin/php mytest.php. It works, except it doesn't know where
        to find mysql_connect(...). How do you tell the command line
        how to invoke mysql commands? Thanks.
        \_ I'm the op and I did install mysql and it works under apache2. I
           figured out my problem. There are two files,
           /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini and /etc/php5/cli/php.ini.
           Pear (command line php) uses /etc/php5/cli/php.ini, in which
           I need to uncomment "extension=mysql.so" the same way I did it
           for /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini. Thanks for your help Dave!
        By the way I don't this problem when I call the same PHP via HTTP.
        \_ PEAR is just a set of written-in-PHP classes and modules; it doesn't
           provide any library functionality.  You need to install the mysql
           extension, which ships w/ PHP.  In your UNIX it may ship as a
           separate package.  --dbushong
