Murat,

I can only point out the two obvious possible issues.

1) Are you really really really really sure your MapServer is using
the same GDAL build that you are using at the commandline?  I know, everyone
is sure but sometimes when they check they realize it isn't.   Keep in mind
that the shared library search path when run as a cgi from apache may be
different than on your user account.  Possibly the GDAL used by MapServer
is not built with mysql support - it is not enabled by default.

2) Perhaps there is a permissions issue when running in the apache
environment, though this seems unlikely given that you are passing an
explicit userid and password.

Best regards,
