Your PHP installation appears to be missing the MySQL extension

Your PHP installation appears to be missing the MySQL extension which is required by WordPress.

This is what I get when I try to install WP.

The server is running.

Centos 6.7 x64.
Litespeed Standard Edition.
MariaDB.

I learned that php-mysql is required.
So I installed php-mysql.

# rpm -qa | grep php-mysql
php-mysql-5.3.3-46.el6_6.x86_64

# tail mysqli.ini
; Enable mysqli extension module
extension=mysqli.so

Also in phpinfo() I have this.

Loaded Configuration File (none)
Scan this dir for additional .ini files (none)
Additional .ini files parsed (none)

Do I need to rebuild PHP? Am I missing anything else?

PHP is not parsing the configuration file. You could add

extension=mysqli.so

to your php.ini file. You can find php.ini by typeing the following command in terminal or by simply looking for the information in your phpinfo() file.

$ php -i | grep "Loaded Configuration File"

(not including the "$")
