acidlab/php problem

[sarge/testing; 2.6.8-1-686-smp 
 snort-mysql-2.2.0-9 acidlab-0.9.6b20-10 php4-mysql-4:4.3.10-2
 apache-ssl-1.3.33-2 mysql-server/mysql-common- 4.0.22-6 ... ]

I've tried about everything (including multiple installs of 'mysql',
'php4', and 'snort') I can think of, but no luck. So am turning to d-u ... !

Has anyone gotten snort-mysql and acidlab to work on 'sarge'?

The DB side is fine ... queries show that 'snort' is adding info.  The
problem is with the initial web page (needed to initialize 'acidlab')
of "https://acme.cs.appstate.edu/acidlab/acid_main.php";.  No matter
what I do, I always get the following URL response:

  PHP ERROR: PHP build incomplete: the prerequisite MySQL support
  required to read the alert database was not built into PHP. Please
  recompile PHP with the necessary library (--with-mysql)

Note that 'phpmyadmin' works fine which suggests it isn't a 'php' problem.

Anyone know what a solution might be?

Thanks,
