>Description: running ./configure with no options works fine until the test program to determine the size of the char data type is compiled and run. I've compiled and run the sample program manually, and added a printf() statement to show the result that's placed into the temporary file using the fprint() line, and the result is '1'. I don't fully-understand how the configure script works, but something is not accepting the value placed in the temporary file. >How-To-Repeat: All I need to do is re-run the configure script and it always fails at the same point. The very same thing happens with the configure script for version 3.23.32 also. My hardware and operating system types are shown below. >Fix: Not sure how to fix it, but I think the problem is in the configure script itself. gcc builds the test program without any errors, and it runs fine, producing the correct output result. >Submitter-Id: <submitter ID> >Originator: Super-User >Organization: Core Matrix Foundation >MySQL support: [none | licence | email support | extended email support ] >Synopsis: seems to be a compatibility issue with Solaris 8 - maybe >Severity: critical >Priority: high >Category: mysql >Class: sw-bug >Release: mysql-3.22.32 (Source distribution) >Environment: System: SunOS jedi 5.8 Generic sun4m sparc SUNW,SPARCstation-20 Architecture: sun4 Some paths: /usr/bin/perl /usr/ccs/bin/make /usr/local/bin/gcc /usr/ucb/cc GCC: Reading specs from /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-solaris2.8/2.95.2/specs gcc version 2.95.2 19991024 (release) Compilation info: CC='gcc' CFLAGS='' CXX='gcc' CXXFLAGS='' LDFLAGS='' Configure command: ./configure --with-unix-socket-path=/var/tmp/mysql.sock --with-low-memory --with-mit-threads=yes --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
