I should have mentioned that JFFNMS on another server CAN talk to the DB so it is running properly.
Thanks Chris

Thanks, makes perfect sense but due to my lack of DB knowledge, I would have never thought of it. :( I downloaded the binary package, removed all traces of mysql packages and brought up the binary version of 4.0 in /usr/local/mysql using the script in support-files. I then yum installed php-mysql which brought in all the dependencies. I can connect with the "mysql" client in /usr/bin which is the 4.1 versions. However, JFFNMS still says that php-mysql is not loaded and cannot talk to the DB. How would you go about testing the php-mysql piece?
Thanks!!! Chris

Greetings all!
I have built a new server with MySQL and have noticed that before even doing anything to it I found that the MySQL logins were much slower than the 4.0 server I used prior to it.
Just as a note, I have not noticed this problem at all -- my logins are just as fast/fine/snappy as always. Not sure what's wrong with your stuff..
I am at a loss of what to do. I would prefere to go with MySQL 4.1 just because that is what comes with CentOS 4, short of that I need php-mysql to work with 4.0. Databases and custome building of RPM's is beyond my capabilities.
You can use the builtin 4.1 *client* binaries (which are what php and it's ilk are linked to), while using the 4.0 server binaries. All you need to do is uninstall "mysql-server" RPM, install your downloaded 4.0 binary package to /usr/local/mysql/ (eg), and run the server from there using it's custom initscript.
Make sure the /etc/my.cnf is all configured nicely before bootstrapping the downloaded 4.0 install, and everything should just click (within reason). Most importantly, make sure the socket path and database path is set.
