Please do a clean build of Apache next time.
You should do 'make clean' in the apache sources at least,
better yet, get fresh sources and do the build from scratch.

I am using the latest sources for apache 1.3.26, mod_ssl 2.8.10, and php-4.2.3. Additionally, I am doing a build from source of MySQL 4.0.4.

*Every* time I build a new binary, I rm -rf each of the source directories, tar -zxvf each tarball, and rebuild from scratch. Below are the directives I am using to build apache, in order:

cd mod_ssl-2.8.10-1.3.26
./configure --with-apache=../apache_1.3.26

cd ../apache_1.3.26
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache

cd ../php-4.2.3
./configure --with-apache=/usr/local/src/apache_1.3.26 \
            --disable-magic-quotes \
            --disable-short-tags \
            --disable-debug \
            --without-gd \
            --enable-url-fopen-wrapper \
            --enable-track-vars \
            --enable-memory-limit \
            --enable-inline-optimization \
            --with-config-file-path=/usr/local/php/ini \
            --with-mysql \
            --enable-ftp \
            --enable-sockets \
            --enable-xml \
            --enable-wddx \
            --enable-bcmath \
            --with-zlib=/usr \
            --with-snmp \
            --enable-ucd-snmp-hack \
            --with-openssl \
            --with-xmlrpc

make -j15
make install

cd ../apache_1.3.26

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache \
            --enable-module=ssl \
            --activate-module=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a \
            --enable-module=rewrite \
            --enable-module=proxy \
            --enable-module=so

make
make install

If you use '--with-mysql' with php configure, it will use the bundled mysql client libs which are of version 3.23.39
in 4.2.3. 

You must use the prefix with which you installed the mysql
to get the correct libs and headers.

Also, make sure you don't have some older mysql libs in your system's default libpath..

Apologies, I copy and pasted the wrong build script. As you can see from my first post to this bug, I did use a prefix of "/usr/local" when configuring php.

Since the shipped version of the mysql libs are 3.23.39 (not 3.23.35), it is obvious that the binary is built against other libs. Additionally, the box has never had a version of MySQL installed on it lower than 3.23.37, so the 3.23.35 version string has to be in error.

Additionally, there are no other copies of the mysql libs and includes other than the 4.0.4 set. I verified this over lunch one day when I left one of our boxen doing a recursive grep of /usr looking for old versions.

Have you attempted to reproduce this? It should be exceedingly easy for anyone to prove.

I hope you're aware that the 'beta' text in that version for mysql really means that it's not ready for production..

Anyway, the api version shown in phpinfo() output comes from
mysql function called 'mysql_get_client_info()' and that is provided by the mysql client libs and in the bundled mysql lib sources it's like this:

mysql_get_client_info(void)
{
  return (char*) MYSQL_SERVER_VERSION;
}

Try grepping your whole system for that incorrect version and you'll find where it's defined..

with regards to the beta string, I have known about the development life cycle, and the alpha, beta, gamma, and release phases of development for many years. MySQL 4 is doing wonderfully in production, and we put each release through rigorous testing in house before implementing it. You should try it out sometime.

With regards to the version string, there are no files on the filesystem that match 3.23.35.

Have you tried to build it yet using the build method I sent? If so, what were the results?

Additionally, as I stated earlier, the PHP binary and the PHP Apache modules are being compiled on the same server, with the same configure options (except --with-apache).

Nothing on the server was changed between building the binary and the module. They both used clean source trees (freshly untarred, even). The binary reports the correct version, the module does not. The module also does not report the version of the included MySQL libs, instead it reports a version of MySQL that has never been installed on the server.

Can you check what the build-date is in the phpinfo output where the incorrect mysql version is shown?
(2nd line, iirc)

Does it match the date you build it?

yes, it does. Both the binary build and the apache module were built on October 2, 2002, and they both show the correct build date.

Please try using this CVS snapshot:

Even as I'm pretty sure this is some problem in your system or an user error..

Apologies for the delay; the previous message got lost in my inbox and I forgot to check up on it.

I am unable to build from the snapshot. I grabbed the latest snapshot, and ran buildconf in the root of the source tree. then I ran my configure line (pasted earlier). Error follows:

That compile error is fixed. Please try more recent snapshot tomorrow.

I have just Installed Apache2.0.59,Php 4.4.7 and MySQL 4.1.22 on windows 2003 server. When I run the phpinfo.php script, I see that the MySQL Client API version is 3.23.49 ,Shouldn't the MySQL Client API version be 4.1.12 to match the MySQL version? If so, what file(s) should I replace?
