Wordpress installation fails

"Your PHP installation appears to be missing the MySQL extension which is required by WordPress."

This appears immediately upon running the install script.  It seems to be caused by a missing mysql.so module in PHP.  Looking at my phpinfo indicates that the file for initializing the module was read (/etc/php.d/mysql.ini)  but the module doesn't seem to be loaded.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
JD

Re: Wordpress installation fails

This is a quirk with php.ini file: it was pointing to incorrect extensions directory.

Try it now, should work fine.
