Hello,
I'm running "mysql Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.37, for pc-linux-gnu (i686) using
readline 5.0" which I compiled from source. My installation is in
/usr/local/mysql. I now here about it being not recommended to compile
mysql from source, but apparantly I didn't follow that guideline. Now I
appear to be having problems while I'm trying to compile mysql++. When I
./configure, I get:
checking for MySQL library directory... /usr/local/mysql/lib
checking for MySQL include directory... /usr/local/mysql/include
checking for mysql_store_result in -lmysqlclient... no
configure: error: Could not find working MySQL client library!
I'm guessing I'm missing some files in ../lib or ../include, because I tried
./configure on my buddy's server, (who installed the binaries), and got
this:
checking for MySQL library directory... /usr/lib
checking for MySQL include directory... /usr/include/mysql
checking for mysql_store_result in -lmysqlclient... yes
So now, I don't know what exactly to do. Any guidance? I really don't want
to go through the hassle of reinstalling mysql, and having to move all my
databases, etc.
Thank you very much,
Jonathon Reinhart
