apxs errors installing mod auth mysql.so

apxs:Break: Command failed with rc=16777215 trying to build and install mod

[j_a_c_k]

I am a newbie to building and installing modules into my VPS.

Here is what I know:
I have downloaded and unpacked the mod_auth_mysql package from [modauthmysql.sourceforge.net...]
I have located the relevant modules in my system.
When I try the build I get the Message.
apxs:Break: Command failed with rc=16777215

Nowhere can I find a definition of this error. It turns up in Google searches as a kind of "any error", perhaps indicating that something could not be found.

Here are the module locations in my VPS.

Source Code for mod_auth_mysql.c
/usr/local/src/mod_auth_mysql-3.0.0

MySQL Library
/usr/local/mysql/lib

MySQL Header mysql.h
/usr/local/mysql/include

MySQL Client
/usr/local/mysql/lib

Here is my command:
apxs -c -L/usr/local/mysql/lib -I/usr/local/mysql/include -lmysqlclient /usr/local/src/mod_auth_mysql-3.0.0/mod_auth_mysql.c

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know much about this, but have you tried a search on the error message [google.com]?

Yes, I have searched everywhere, that is why I think that something is missing but I don't know what.
