My last post described what I thought was a solution to the mapserver build problem -- well, that was just poppycock. Learning can be so so humbling :<(
The mysterious Jeff gave me some advice that really helped me nix the problem though. In his own words and [my additions]: mystery_jeff wrote: > > If you are linking dynamically against libgdal, you use [the libraries > that are listed in the output of the command] "gdal-config > --libs" and you don't need to take care what libraries gdal uses (which > is what [the command] "gdal-config --dep-libs" shows). > The source of the problem seemed to be that when you run the configure (below) it creates a make file that references gdal-config --dep-libs as well as the gdal-config --libs. Then when you run make it throws up and says it can't find the --dep-libs (two posts ago show these outputs). $ ./configure --with-ogr=/usr/local/bin/gdal-config --with-gdal=/usr/local/bin/gdal-config --with-postgis=/usr/bin/pg_config > twinkie_config_log.txt ---Makefile--- # Optional GDAL Support (provides read access to a variety of raster formats) # See http://www.remotesensing.org/gdal/ GDAL= -DUSE_GDAL GDAL_LIB= -L/usr/local/lib -lgdal -L/usr/local/lib -lgeos_c -lsqlite3 -lodbc -lodbcinst -lxerces-c -lpthread -ljasper -lhdf5 -lmfhdfalt -ldfalt -lgif -ljpeg -lpng -lnetcdf -L/usr/lib -lpq -lz -lpthread -lm -lrt -ldl -lcurl -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions GDAL_INC= -I/usr/local/include So i removed the libs that were part of the --dep-libs from the makefile: ---Edited Makefile--- # Optional GDAL Support (provides read access to a variety of raster formats) # See http://www.remotesensing.org/gdal/ GDAL= -DUSE_GDAL GDAL_LIB= -L/usr/local/lib -lgdal GDAL_INC= -I/usr/local/include I was also getting similar make errors about unfound libraries like "libpam" and "libxslt" with "pg_config". Although "pg_config" doesn't list any libraries as dependencies, I took a bet that if I just left -lpq in and removed the others it would compile. So i went from: ---Makefile--- # Optional PostGIS Support. See http://postgis.refractions.net/ POSTGIS= -DUSE_POSTGIS -DPOSTGIS_HAS_SERVER_VERSION POSTGIS_LIB= -L/usr/lib -lpq -lpgport -lxslt -lxml2 -lpam -lssl -lcrypto -lkrb5 -lcom_err -lgssapi_krb5 -lz -lreadline -lcrypt -ldl -lm POSTGIS_INC= -I/usr/include/postgresql To: ---Edited Makefile--- # Optional PostGIS Support. See http://postgis.refractions.net/ POSTGIS= -DUSE_POSTGIS -DPOSTGIS_HAS_SERVER_VERSION POSTGIS_LIB= -L/usr/lib -lpq POSTGIS_INC= -I/usr/include/postgresql Make worked! I thought that maybe my postgis wouldn't work with mapserver correctly because of the above makefile edits. So i tested it, naturally,...and produced a pretty picture of Oregon and Washington national parks and national forests ;) I'm happy, still confused (why hasn't anyone else experienced this?) http://osgeo-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/file/n5979801/test12965315518188.gif -- View this message in context: http://osgeo-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/make-cannot-find-libodbc-and-libodbcinst-on-compilation-tp5962776p5979801.html Sent from the Mapserver - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ mapserver-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
