Bug description: Problems with configure script on AIX with mysql 64-bit
Description:
------------
On a fresh install of AIX 5.3 at TL 06-03 I am trying to configure php5.
I was not expecting it to work perfectly on the first pass, because I am
also using the IBM compiler as part of the test, rather than gcc.
System: AIX 5.3, Power4, 64-bit mode, jfs2 filesystems
Compiler: xlC/C++ 7 with latest patches from July 2007
The first problem I run into is that configure wants the file:
xml2-config. I tried loading the AIX Toolbox package for libxml2, but this
package does not include the file xml2-config.
This problem I could resolve by downloading the source package
(libxml2-2.6.30), running config, make, and make install.
The next problem involved finding the mysql include and lib files. I have
the 64-bit version of mysql loaded:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[/usr/local]ls -l mysql
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root system 52 Oct 09 22:28 mysql ->
/data/home/michael/mysql-5.0.45-aix5.2-powerpc-64bit
The mysql distributions have a standard layout. The include/lib files are
located at: /usr/local/mysql/include and /usr/local/mysql/lib
These two errors were resolved my adding two symbolic links:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[/usr/local/include]ls -l
total 160
drwxr-xr-x 3 root system 256 Oct 09 22:31 libxml2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root system 16 Oct 09 22:42 mysql ->
../mysql/include
-rw-r--r-- 1 root system 9544 Oct 11 12:54 zconf.h
-rw-r--r-- 1 root system 66188 Oct 11 12:54 zlib.h
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[/usr/local/lib]ls -l
total 10384
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root system 5200148 Oct 09 22:31 libxml2.a
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root system 785 Oct 09 22:31 libxml2.la
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root system 103558 Oct 11 12:54 libz.a
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root system 12 Oct 09 22:54 mysql ->
../mysql/lib
drwxr-xr-x 2 root system 256 Oct 09 22:31 pkgconfig
-rw-r--r-- 1 root system 225 Oct 09 22:31 xml2Conf.sh
The final errors that I could not resolve regard the search for some mysql
functions:
checking for MySQL support... yes
checking for specified location of the MySQL UNIX socket... no
checking for MySQL UNIX socket location... /tmp/mysql.sock
checking for mysql_close in -lmysqlclient... no
checking for mysql_error in -lmysqlclient... no
configure: error: mysql configure failed. Please check config.log for more
information.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[/home/michael/prj/php-5.2.4]tail config.log
#line 59860 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"
/* Override any gcc2 internal prototype to avoid an error. */
/* We use char because int might match the return type of a gcc2
builtin and then its argument prototype would still apply. */
char mysql_error();
int main() {
mysql_error()
; return 0; }
The library is found, but as it is 64-bit, the routines are not found.
Even with AIX I must specify -X64 to see the contents....

My assumption is that php is not supporting 64-bit builds. I'll put a
32-bit mysql in place (as it is only a symbolic link I need to change) and
continue. If php is linking functions into the client a 32-bit build should
not be a problem. However, if it is loading the mysqlclient library
dynamically, swictching to a 64-bit rte is likely to break php.
p.s. I also downloaded and built the zlib-1.2.3 package. Having it
installed was not enough, I still had to provide the source directory.
Reproduce code:
---------------
./configure --with-mysql --with-zlib-dir=/data/prj/zlib.1.2.3
Expected result:
----------------
That I could run make.
Actual result:
--------------
checking for MySQL support... yes
checking for specified location of the MySQL UNIX socket... no
checking for MySQL UNIX socket location... /tmp/mysql.sock
checking for mysql_close in -lmysqlclient... no
checking for mysql_error in -lmysqlclient... no
configure: error: mysql configure failed. Please check config.log for more
information.
