MySQL vs. PHP - a little difference. Dangerous?

[evernewbie]

After yesterday's campaign and an efficient help from DA Support (thank you!) I have working MySQL, but phpMyAdmin was unable to work.

My ISP fixed it somehow, but now phpMyAdmin generates the following warning:

"Your PHP MySQL library version 5.0.51a differs from your MySQL server version 5.1.54. This may cause unpredictable behavior."

Well, my ISP says, it would be necessary that I reinstall PHP to avoid problems.

- is he right? Should I really reinstall PHP to a different version?
- if yes - how can I do it?

Thanks i advance for any help.

You just need to reinstall PHP:

cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build update
./build php n

Good luck!

I did it yesterday, before John from DA gave a new life to MySQL. Do you mean, I should repeat this operation?

Yes, try repeating it. If it does not help, try doing "./build mysql" before "./build php n".

smtalk, you were right, thanks & congratulations, the PHP recompilation was easy and fixed my problem with phpMyAdmin, even Roundcube started to work...
