Re: config problem with mysql RPM libraries

Well I seem to have it sorted now. I linked php5 to the .tar.gz static binary's libraries of MySQL 5.0.18 . And am using it with the same version installed as an RPM. Should be all the same source code, so I cannot see any problems with that. Hopefull, it will not crash! This the contents of php5's config.nice #! /bin/sh # # Created by configure './configure' \ '--with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache-2.0.55/bin/apxs' \ '--prefix=/usr/local/php-5.1.2' \ '--with-mysql=shared,/downloads/mysql/bin/mysql-standard-5.0.18-linux-i686' \ '--with-mysql-sock=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' \ '--with-zlib-dir=/usr/include' \ '--with-mysqli=shared,/downloads/mysql/bin/mysql-standard-5.0.18-linux-i686/bin/mysql_config' \ "$@" Keith In theory, theory and practice are the same; In practice they are not.
