In that case, it is clearly not a Solr issue per se. It is not clear from your
description how you are trying to access Solr from PHP: Are you using
one of the existing PHP/Solr interfaces, or simply making calls to the
Solr Web interface?

Not very sure, but I think that the OS packages should include everything
needed, and in general, it is not a good idea to mix and match different
versions of libraries. I am not a PHP developer, but think that mysqlnd is
not absolutely required for accessing mysql from PHP. In any case, interfacing
PHP with mysql is a separate problem that is definitely off-topic here. You
could try asking on a PHP/mysql list.

Sorry, do not know the answer to that, other than there are several PHP
interfaces to Solr available: Please try searching Google for "PHP Solr".
