I've been trying to install MySQL 4.0.9 on FreeBSD 4.7, and
have been getting stuck in the configure phase. I'd be
grateful for any suggestions.
I'm running FreeBSD 4.7 on a single-processor 1.4GHz PIII,
using gcc 2.95.4, and trying to compile with
Linuxthreads. I've been using the instructions Jeremy Zawodny
posted in his blog at
http://jeremy.zawodny.com/blog/archives/000458.html .
I modified Jeremy's command to eliminate some of the obvious
things I didn't need, and started with:
CFLAGS='-O -pipe -march=pentiumpro -D__USE_UNIX98 \
-D_REENTRANT -D_THREAD_SAFE -DHAVE_BROKEN_REALPATH \
-I/usr/local/include/pthread/linuxthreads' CXX=cc \
CC=cc CXXFLAGS='-O -pipe -march=pentiumpro \
-D__USE_UNIX98 -D_REENTRANT -D_THREAD_SAFE \
-DHAVE_BROKEN_REALPATH -I/usr/local/include/pthread/linuxthreads \
-felide-constructors -fno-rtti -fno-exceptions' ./configure \
--with-mit-threads=no \
--enable-assembler \
'--with-named-thread-libs=-DHAVE_GLIBC2_STYLE_GETHOSTBYNAME_R \
-D_THREAD_SAFE -DHAVE_BROKEN_REALPATH \
-I/usr/local/include/pthread/linuxthreads -L/usr/local/lib \
-llthread -llgcc_r' --enable-thread-safe-client \
--with-libwrap --with-raid
This dies relatively early with:
checking for C compiler default output... configure: error:
C compiler cannot create executables
I've tried re-configuring with every possible variant, and it seems
that the problem happens when CFLAGS has both the linuxthreads
flag and the D_THREAD_SAFE flag. If the latter is omitted,
configuration will proceed past this point.
Since I don't know much about the whole compilation process, I'd
be grateful for any suggestions as to what to try to get this to
work properly.
Also, once past this, if I omit all the flags on ./configure, it
finishes configuration properly; if I include them, it will die
later on with:
checking size of char... configure: error: cannot compute sizeof (char), 77
I haven't experimented to see which configure flag might be causing
this, but if anyone has any ideas, I'd be grateful.
Thanks.
