Hi all,
Newbie alert, please be gentle.
My system is Redhat 7.0 with glibc-2.2-12, kernel 2.2.16-22.
I have started a project which involves learning php & mysql, so I bought
myself a couple of big books to sit down and do some learning!
Problem is, I cannot get MySQL & php installed together nicely... let me
explain.
I currently have php-4.0.1pl2-9, mod-php-4.0.1pl2-9, and would like to
install mysql and php-mysql-4.0.1pl2-9 to go with it. However, I have two
versions of mysql neither of which will install properly.
Problem 1 with mysql-3.23.32 (obtained from updates.redhat.com)
rpm -i mysql-3.23.32.1.7.i386.rpm
I get a whole load of error messages from ldconfig complaining that
"/sbin/ldconfig: /usr/local/lib/xxxxxxx.so is not a symbolic link" - I get
about 40 of these. It's right - they aren't, they are files. The mysql
install stops at that point.. sorta half installed. I can deinstall with rpm
-e (also getting the same ldconfig error, but I actually want to install it!
What do I do?
Problem 2 with MySQL-3.23.33 (note the case of MySQL) (obtained from
mysql.com)
rpm -i MySQL-3.23.33-1.i386.rpm
All seems to go okay - no problems. However, when I try to install the
php-mysql package it complains that "mysql is not installed" (it's a
pre-req). The stupid thing is, it IS installed although when I look with rpm
-q, I find the package called "MySQL", not "mysql".. What do I do here? I
thought renaming the rpm might do it, but sorta knew it wouldn't - and it
didn't work...
Please, I need help.
Cheers,
Al.
