I get the infamouse attention message after I try to configure. I have the
right paths to mysql. I have the libmysqlclient files in
/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql and symbolic linked to /usr/local/mysql
ld.so.conf is correct. Please before I loose the rest of my hair.... help!
Think I remember something like not having zlib installed.. I never seen the error above.. perhaps because I'm always installing quite a few libs.. Seen a question almost simular to yours on another list and it seems zlib caused it..
ld.so.conf should contain /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql DO NOT FORGET to run ldconfig after changing ld.so.conf
Also.. check www.devshed.com a nice tutorial can be found there..
uhm, being a creative guy does NOT mean you know how to install/maintain a server. I wonder.. why don't you hire someone to do the job for you.. costs you less then trying it yourself..
Anyway, the tutorial on devshed.com should get you up and running.. is not going to cost you to much time.
Bye,
