[cobalt-users] os Commerce on RaQ 550 HELP ! ! !

["Jeffrey M. Nunes" <jmn@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I have unpacked the latest snapshot of os Commerce into the web root of 1 web site on a RaQ 550. Everything seems to go OK until I get to the 3rd page of the install.
 
1-new install (mysite/catalog/install)
 
2-I Fill out the form with all the correct info:
DB server is set to localhost, the correct user name / password, and the correct DB
 
3-I hit submit I am brought to the 3rd page and all that is displayed is step 1: DB Import. It seems to hang up here nothing else is displayed. If it doesn't connect to the DB it should say a connection to the DB failed, correct?  I have even tried changing the DB server:configure.php localhost:3306/var/lib/mysql/mysql.socket
 
Thing I have done to try and fix this: 
 
1-I have installed phpmyadmin to make sure I could connect to MySQL, It works fine, I am able to connect and setup DB's and users, etc.
 
2-Shutdown and restarted MySQL, updated MySQL 3.23.54 Protocol Version 10
 
3-Unpacked os Commerce several times (thought data might be corrupt).
 
4-Upon unsuccessful install, If I go to mysite.com/catalog it says:Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mysql_connect() in /home/.sites/48/site10/web/catalog/includes/functions/database.php on line 19

5-Upon unsuccessful install, If I go to mysite.com/admin it says:Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mysql_connect() in /home/.sites/48/site10/web/admin/includes/functions/database.php on line 19

 
Thoughts:
 
-Could it be that os Commerce is looking in the wrong location for my mysql.socket file? How do I check this?
-Do I need to change a configuration in MySQL? How should I?
-Will os Commerce work and has anyone got it working on a RaQ 550?
 
Thanks for everyone's help.
