I am installing drupal-4.5.2 and have hit a snag.

I have mysql Ver 11.16 Distrib 3.23.49 and Apache/1.3.26 (Unix)

When I try to open the first page I get an error

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mysql_connect() in /var/httpd/drupal/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 31

I have a feeling that I have missed something in the install procedure but I have been over everything a couple of times and can't spot anything.

That looks like your installed version of PHP does not have the MySQL client library compiled in. So it's really a PHP install problem.
