I have installed this package on our RaQ4, and although MySQL seems to be 
installed correctly ( I can log into it from a command line and create 
databases, tables and users ), PHP seems to be unable to access MySQL.  PHP 
is running -- I can run simple scripts with no DB access just fine, but I 
cannot make the connection to a MySQL database.  I have set up MySQL and PHP 
successfully on RaQ2 and RaQ3 boxes, so I know how to set up MySQL users and 
databases and such.

Anyone know what might be wrong here?  Do I need to do something to PHP to 
make it recognize MySQL?
