Thanks, I used your workaround and it worked. I had the path to /usr/lib/mysql where the libmysqlclient is already in /etc/ld.so.conf

Try "rpm -ql mysql-devel" or "find / -name libmysqlclient\* -print". Is that directory in your linker's search path? Eg. check /etc/ld.so.conf on linux machines and make sure it's listed in there, then run "ldconfig". There is a problem on *BSD where it doesn't find this library, even though the linker supposedly knows where it is, and perhaps that's your problem (though I don't think it's been an issue on linux, offhand). In that case, as a workaround, try: LDFLAGS=-L/dir/containing/libmysqlclient/ ./configure --with-mysql Jesse ---- Original Message ---- From: Greg Smythe <dbmail@dbmail.org> To: <dbmail@dbmail.org> Subject: [Dbmail] Can't run configure -- mysql error Sent: Mon, 7 Jul 2003 13:53:27 -0400 > Hello -- > > I looked through the archives and didn't find a solution to this.
