At check file it says I do not have that version of MySQL on my server. Add the following code to see which version I have and this is the answer:

echo "<h2>Exact Version PHP & MySQL: </h2>";
printf("PHP version: %s\n", PHP_VERSION); 
$mysql = mysqli_connect('localhost', 'root', 'example'); 
#$mysql = mysqli_connect('localhost', 'root', ''); 
## Test the MySQL connection 
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
   printf("</br> Connection failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error());
   exit();
}
## Print the MySQL server version 
printf("</br> MySQL server version: %s\n",    mysqli_get_server_info($mysql)); 
##Close the MySQL connection 
mysqli_close($mysql);

Result :

Exact Version PHP & MySQL:

PHP version: 5.5.30-1~dotdeb+7.1 
MySQL server version: 5.6.15

EDIT

I there a close option for Cannot be bothered to read the first 2 lines of the error from the screen? — RiggsFolly
Except at the bottom where the OP lists "MySQL server version: 5.6.15". Curious. Unless the OP is not using localhost for the Magneto DB. — aynber
It will be obvious, but I do have a later version installed on my server. — NHTorres
Then he is not connecting to the same MYSQL in the install as he does in his PHP test — RiggsFolly
You can have, although it does lead to confusion, more than one MYSQL Server installed on any one system — RiggsFolly

Since you mentioned that the magento store loads after giving 777 permissions, we can conclude that there is no problem with mysql database connectivity.

Your server logs tell exactly what the problem really is. Make sure that the ownership of magento root directory, subdirectories and all files are as per apache (httpd.conf) User and Group.

In my box, User is http and Group is http. Issue following commands, where $MAGENTO_ROOT is your magento root directory:

$ chown http:http * -R
$ cd $MAGENTO_ROOT
$ sudo rm var/{cache,session,generation} -R
$ sudo -u http -g http bin/magento setup:upgrade
$ sudo -u http -g http bin/magento setup:di:compile

If you are using php-fpm then make sure php-fpm.ini has same user and group values.
