Apparently there is a name conflict between FreeTDS's implementation of DB-Library and Easysoft OOB. I checked and this problem also exists with Sybase's own DB-Library. However, there will most likely be a conflict between the DB-Library and Apache itself (see http://www.freetds.org/faq.html#43). I would recommend using CT-Library (--with-sybase-ct) instead. However, FreeTDS's implementation of CT-Library is incomplete/broken (when I last checked), so you are better off getting Sybase's own libraries. Go to http://www.sybase.com/ then follow "Downloads" (along the left) -> "Beta Programs" (trust me) -> "Adaptive Server Enterprise for Linux version 11.9.2 download", and I'm sure you can take it from there. The packages you need to download are sybase-common-11.9.2-2.i386.rpm, sybase-openclient-11.1.1-2.i386.rpm, and whatever language packs you may need. Install the common package first, then the Open Client, then change your configure line to say '--with-sybase-ct=/opt/sybase-11.9.2'. DON'T forget to set the SYBASE (to '/opt/sybase-11.9.2') and LANG (to 'C' or whatever, see /opt/sybase-11.9.2/locales/locales.dat; make sure you have the necessary language pack!) environment variables before starting Apache or it will crash and burn before it even gets off the ground (see bugs #3161, 4809, et al.). -- Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams <ignacio@openservices.net>
