RE: [vchkpw] vpopmail installation on a Client MySQL Server
Hello: Yesterday, I posted this message & many people responded. I was following document "http://www.pipeline.com.au/staff/isp/webmail-server.htm";. When I tried to add a domain I will get an error: >>/home/vpopmail/bin/vadddomain: error while loading shared libraries: >>libmysqlclient.so.12: cannot open shared object file: no such file or >>directory Several people on this list responded. That made me thinking. Finally, I figured it out: During the build of vpopmail, include full path to the directory, as follows: ./configure \ (several options) --enable-incdir=/usr/local/mysql/include/mysql --enable-libdir=/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql This did the trick. This post is for future information. Kirti

RE: [vchkpw] vpopmail installation on a Client MySQL Server
Eduardo: /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql does have libmysqlclient.so.12. I followed your advice. Added path to the library in etc/ld.so.conf and created the PATH to /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql. Still the same error. I am going to take advice of Rick & install MySQL full package. Kirti -Original Message- From: Eduardo M.

Your vpopmail is trying to use shared libraries that can't be found on the system. Search for the path of the files libmysqlclient.* (find / | grep libmysqlclient) and check if it's listed at /etc/ld.so.conf. It must be listed at your $PATH environment variable as well.

[vchkpw] vpopmail installation on a Client MySQL Server
Hello List: This is my first message on this list. Please consider me a newbie in the area of LINUX, vpopmail, etc. I have setup two servers as follows: (1) A master mysql server: data.tib.com Master MySQL server has RH9 & MySQL 4.0.20 installed. (2) A mail server: mail.tib.com For the mail server, I want to install RH9, Apache, qmail, vpopmail, etc., by following the toaster: http://www.pipeline.com.au/staff/mbowe/isp/webmail-server.htm There is only one exception: I have installed Client MySQL on the MAIL server. I have tested the MySQL connection from the MAIL (Client MySQL) to the DATA (Master MySQL) server & it connects. The problem is that all the instruction to install vpopmail is for a MySQL to be installed on the localhost. Therefore, my question is: Has anyone installed vpopmail & client mysql where all the data resides on a master mysql server? Is it even possible? If it is not possible, then what are the alternatives? FYI, I have looked in vpopmail archives & GOOGLE, without success. HELP, I have spent over 10 days reading, researching & pulling my hair.
