Hello,

I had the same problem. So I tried to use

./configure --with-pdo-mysql=/path/to/your/mysql/installation
(E.G.: /usr/local/mysql)

and it is all right now.

Hi.

I had this problem that error messeges
"ERROR: `/var/tmp/PDO_MYSQL/configure' failed" when installing pdo_mysql.

But i resolved this problem

that reason why this masseges appear is you don't install php-mysql.

if you install php-mysql by "yum -y install php-mysql", you will already have 
install pdo and pdo-mysql

you don't need to use "pecl install pdo_mysql".

then you should insert to php.ini
"extension=pdo.so"
"extension=pdo-mysql.so"

you can work pdo.

Have a fun!!

Had the same problem, which also caused "Couldn't locate driver named mysql" when 
running doctrine:insert-sql in symfony. yum -y install php-mysql as per prev post 
resolved the issue. Thank you!
