I saw that. That upgrade will resolve the dbmail build with mysql but...
When I upgrade to MySQL 5.0.18 the Postfix build with mysql can't complete
because it can't find libsqlclient.so.14. (I spent a few hours trying to
resolve the libsqlclient.so.14. before going back to MySQL 4.0.16)
I'm using Fedora Core 4.

Hey Jim:
Here's 'howto' on a fresh from MySQL AB binaries pkg that you should be able
to install yourself.
MySQL client is where your problem begins so far. Nothing to do with mail
yet... not really a thing of this list but... Get MySQL installed and
working to the point of being able to do command line queries: >mysql and
then in mysql "show databases" and seeing "mysql" "test" as the databases.
You have conflicted MySQL client issues; linker problems; dependency issues
and who knows what else... I suggest you remove all the old mysql clients
you currently have installed. If you can't, unlink them. You seem to have a
range. Cleaning up the mysql server and clients and installing a current
MySQL 4.1.18 is a worthwhile start.
I take it you are back to using MySQL 4.0.16. That's just barely OK . If you
get it working::live with it. But I think if all your responders on this
list are about to be Dads/Moms to this installation, this child needs to
have a predictably good future. :o)
Use MySQL 4.1 to ensure scalability, upgradeability and ease your headaches.
I know nothing about your Fedora Core 4 build but wonder if its possible to
remove the MySQL RPMs and install a binary package direct from MySQL. Here's
how:
See: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/4.1.html
Give them (MySQL AB) a read and see if you think this is for you. This is
MySQL from the horses mouth. :o)
They have non-RPM already-compiled binaries which you can install on your
own using your native shell tools. Simple stuff.
I think you will end up with a /usr/local/mysql installation
Is this you: Linux, Intel C/C++ compiled, glibc-2.3
Sound about right?
Do something like this:
1) You need to get all the old stuff out of there so try uninstalling all
the mysql and mysql clients you have on your system. Restart your system to
clear any linkers or package thingies or whatever.
2) Install a nice clean MySQL 4.1.18
mkdir /usr/install
cd /usr/install
wget http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/4.1.html
gunzip mysql-standard-4.1.18-pc-linux-gnu-i686-icc-glibc23.tar.gz
tar xvf mysql-standard-4.1.18-pc-linux-gnu-i686-icc-glibc23.tar.gz.tar
cd mysql-standard-4.1.18-pc-linux-gnu-i686-icc-glibc23.tar.gz
./configure
make
make install
(You can watch each step for troubles -- hopefully none.)
good luck...
Mike
