#48715 [Opn->Fbk]: Configure php with mysql result "configure: error: mysql configure failed"

ID: 48715 Updated by: jani@php.net Reported By: amiroot at yahoo dot com -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Bug Type: MySQL related Operating System: RedHat EL5 64bit PHP Version: 5.2.10 / 5.3 CVS New Comment: You did what now to the libs? Please try installing mysql properly. I doubt you can't build 5.2.9 either now. I have Centos5 with properly installed mysql libs and everything work just fine. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-06-30 01:54:22] amiroot at yahoo dot com Same result even I added --with-zlib-dir. So do the error in config.log. I think the problem is that the configure cannot find the library in xx/lib64/mysql folder even I removed the one in xx/lib64/mysql. Can we have an option to specify the location of the library? Because in some case the 32 bit and 64 bit version library may coexists for compatibility sake. And I believe I'm not alone. I found a very similar bug before (http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=47972). I open this bug because I can't reopen that bug. I believed that the 2 case might be merged. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-06-29 20:40:39] jani@php.net And did you try adding the obvious I omitted? (--with-zlib-dir..) I find it kinda hard to believe this would be any PHP bug since the config.m4 in ext/mysql has not changed between 5.2.9 and 5.2.10. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-06-29 12:04:12] amiroot at yahoo dot com Here you go~ checking for mysql_close in -lmysqlclient... no checking for mysql_errno in -lmysqlclient... no configure: error: Try adding --with-zlib-dir=<DIR>. Please check config.log for more information. The same "cannot find -lmysqlclient" error appear in config.log ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-06-29 11:57:24] jani@php.net Try this instead: # rm config.cache # ./configure --disable-all --with-mysql ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-06-29 11:17:50] amiroot at yahoo dot com I tried even ./configure --with-mysql --with-zlib-dir=/usr but the problem still exists. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
