Configure failed with mysql support in 1.4

[sauter]

I'm trying to compile 1.4 on Solaris 10, but the command

./configure --prefix=/opt/zabbix --enable-server --enable-agent --with-mysql --with-net-snmp --with-curl

produces the error:

[...]
checking for mysql_config... /opt/csw/mysql5/bin/mysql_config
checking for main in -lmysqlclient ... no
configure: error: Not found mysqlclient library

I never had any problems compiling the 1.1.x releases, and I have now spent several hours on this problem, trying different settings and different locations of mysql with no luck, so now I'm stuck.

I found the problem. It had to do with the cflags that mysql_config produces. The MySQL distribution was compiled with Sun's compiler and not gcc, so the compiler flags in mysql_config are flags for Sun's compiler.

I edited mysql_config and replaced "-mt" with "-pthreads", "-xarch=v8" with "-mcpu=v8" and then I also had to remove "-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64" to get it through gcc.

¿ Did you had some trouble related to libidn ?

I can't compile the Zabbix server with Jabber support.

I am using Solaris 10 too.

Thanks.

No, I didn't try to compile with Jabber support, and I didn't have any other issues than the ones I mentioned.

This worked for me also on AIX 5.3, when trying to compile with gcc.

I had to edit also mysql_config and edit the flags from
-O3 -qstrict -qoptimize=3 -qmaxmem=8192
to
-pipe -mcpu=power3 -Wa,-many

Thank you
