Apart from what Gavin writes, since you're using CentOS5.1, consider 
using Buchan Milne's Red Hat RHEL5 rpms or src rpm at 
http://staff.telkomsa.net/packages/. He's done an awful lot of work (has 
done for years) and patched  things that need patching (apart from 
anything else db4.6) which should ensure things working out of the box 
on your system.

Best,
