[R] RMySQL installation: libz missing
Hi I run suse linux 9.1 and I installed MySQL server, client, devel, bench. DBI is installed, when I try to install RMySQL I get an error saying, that libz is missing. (paths to libs were set:export PKG_CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/include/mysql/ export PKG_LIBS=-L/usr/lib/mysql/ -lmysqlclient) so my question: where do I get the libz files (are these mysql files? if yes, why were they not installed at least by mysql-devel?) thanks for your kind help christoph __ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html
Re: [R] RMySQL installation: libz missing
hi christoph i had the same problem recently, i ended up finding that the following linux packages were missing (or at least one of them). php4-mysql php5-mysql php5-mysqli maybe that helps, sebastian On Tuesday 03 May 2005 12:54, Christoph Lehmann wrote: Hi I run suse linux 9.1 and I installed MySQL server, client, devel, bench.

Re: [R] RMySQL installation: libz missing SOLVED
it seemed to be a problem with the rpm for suse 9.1.. I installed and compiled R2.1 using the sources, then installation of RMySQL succeeded mmmh ..

Re: [R] RMySQL installation: libz missing SOLVED
Hi, do you have zlib installed on your system? (rpm -q zlib tells you if or not) You can also try rpm -q --whatprovides libz . zlib provides libz. If not installed, the manual compilation of R uses its own version of zlib, if I understand it correctly. So, not really a problem with the rpm.
