Sounds like you need to install the development files for mysql, so PHP can link to them. You need to install the same version of the mysql development files that match your mysql installed package (5.0.27)

On Fedora Core 6 (32 bit) the required files for mysql are:

mysql        [EMAIL PROTECTED]
mysql-devel  [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Subject: [PHP-INSTALL] PHP config fails - cannot find lmysqlclient

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

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
