MYSQL
Hi,
I am reposting this, as I never received
a response the first time.
"I read your instructions. QMail is
already running, hence this email;-)
Mysql
was installed with Mandrake 8.2. Created database with webmin. Did the
./configure. When running make receive errors and I think only the first one
counts as the others are related to it. The error is:
vauth.c:35:
parse error before 'mysql_update'
Below is what is at line 35 in
vauth.c:
static MYSQL mysql_update
Any suggestions
please."
You have a good day now,
Carl

Hi Carl
Yes, all the vpopmail account
information is stored in the MySQL database if you enable MySQL
backend support. It totally eliminates the .cdb files
One of
the benefits of this is it allows you to easily write web based
tools (eg in ASP or PHP) that can talk to the database and then present
easy to use interface for your support staff to manage the user
accounts.
Also, you can add additional columns to the
database to store other per-user information without affecting the
operation of vpopmail
If you are having trouble
compiling/installing vpopmail w/MySQL, I have a quick guide available
online at
Maybe take a look there to see if it helps
solve your install problems.
Hope that helps!
Michael.

Is MySQL used for storing user information
so that we the ISP can use it for tech support , etc. I cannot compile
vpopmail with mysql support.
