hm, do you have the PHP-MySQL extension installed and loaded?
You can check this by creating a quick test.php page in which you put
the following:
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
then request this page in your browser. Don't forget to delete it!
If you don't have it installed, look for the php5-mysql package.
If you have it but it doesn't show up in phpinfo output, you will need
to add it to your php.ini. See the package's MESSAGE for more info.
Cheers,
Peter
