I have mysql 3.23.32 source tarball and Berkely DB 3.2.3h source tarball. BDB : configure --enable-static --enable-cxx; make ; make install MySQL : configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql --with-mysqld-user=mysql --enable-thread-safe-client ; make ; make install. Everything works so far. After installation: chown mysql.mysql /usr/local/mysql -R /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_install_db FAILED! mysqld ends with Segmentation fault. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ System is Slackware 7.0 with: glibc 2.1.2 kernel 2.2.13 egcs 1.1.2 (gcc 2.91.66) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Without BDB, same result. Binary distribution however always works. Someone on this list suggested me to upgrade glibc libraries. I did, to glibc 2.1.3. No change. Later I upgraded the kernel source tree to 2.2.17, but I haven't compiler the new kernel yet. MySQL _WITHOUT_ BDB works. With BDB, same error. Please tell me what am I doing wrong. I have tried everything in the manual, I have read the commented manual on-line, I browsed the mailing list's archive, tried older versions of mysql, even before BDB introduction, always the same error with a compiled server. Please help. ===== ing. Andrei Boros Centrul pt. Tehnologia Informatiei Societatea Romana de Radiodifuziune __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
