Sorry, I had to submit this bug a second time because the e-mail field under http://bugs.php.net is to short and cut my address in the middle :( ...

When trying to connect to a db with php4, the result is 'Resource id #1' (and #2 etc. on subsequent calls) instead of an integer.

The call was:
echo mysql_connect("localhost",$wwwuser,$wwwpass)
Changing any fields dos not help at all (I think I tried every possible variant during the last 12 hours). mysql_pconnect produces the same error, btw.

*The problem is eliminated by switching back to php3!*

I installed the latest mysql from source and from rpm, it did not help. However, I saw similar problems when searching dejanews.com, but related to other mysql calls. Obviously, other people are at least able to connect to a database before the problem arises.
