Common Problems with MySQL and PHP
----------------------------------

   * Error: "Maximum Execution Time Exceeded" This is a PHP limit;  Go
     into the `php3.ini' file and set the maximum execution time up
     from 30 seconds to something higher, as needed.  It is also not a
     bad idea to double the ram allowed per script to 16MB instead of 8
     MB.

   * Error: "Fatal error: Call to unsupported or undefined function
     mysql_connect() in .."  This means that your PHP version isn't
     compiled with MySQL support.  You can either compile a dynamic
     MySQL module and load it into PHP or recompile PHP with built-in
     MySQL support.  This is described in detail in the PHP manual.

   * Error: "undefined reference to `uncompress'" This means that the
     client library is compiled with support for a compressed
     client/server protocol. The fix is to add `-lz' last when linking
     with `-lmysqlclient'.
