Greetings all, I am trying to configure PHP 5.2.3 on my server. The current version of MySQL is 5.0.27, Apache 1.3.x. The configure command is:
-------------------------- ../configure --with-mysql --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs --with-zlib-dir -------------------------- All runs well (until it doesn't...) and it terminates (i.e. Fails) with the following: ========================================================================================================== configure:58925: checking for mysql_error in -lmysqlclient configure:58944: gcc -o onftest -I/usr/include -g -O2 -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib/mysq l -L/usr/lib/mysql -L/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/local/lib -L/usr/local/lib -Wl,-r path,/usr -L/usr onftest.c -lmysqlclient -lz -lz -lresolv -lm -ldl -lnsl -lxm [EMAIL PROTECTED] php-5.2.3]# tail -20 config.log int main() { mysql_close() ; return 0; } configure:58925: checking for mysql_error in -lmysqlclient configure:58944: gcc -o onftest -I/usr/include -g -O2 -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib/mysql -L/usr/lib/mysql -L/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/local/lib -L/usr/local/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr -L/usr conftest.c -lmysqlclient -lz -lz -lresolv -l m -ldl -lnsl -lxml2 -lm -lxml2 -lm 1>&5 /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so when searching for -lmysqlclient /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.a when searching for -lmysqlclient /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lmysqlclient collect2: ld returned 1 exit status configure: failed program was: #line 58933 "configure" #include "confdefs.h" /* Override any gcc2 internal prototype to avoid an error. */ /* We use char because int might match the return type of a gcc2 builtin and then its argument prototype would still apply. */ char mysql_error(); int main() { mysql_error() ; return 0; } [EMAIL PROTECTED] php-5.2.3]# ======================================================================================================== I have tried to find all the references to "lmysqlclient" and there's not much. I am just hoping someone out there has come across this problem and has resolved it successfully. ANY help will be most appreciated. Thanks, Pete
