After doing some more research I found out that the chip in the AS 1200 is an EV56, and made the connection between that and the EV6 binary dumping on me.
Following the advice of "2.6.1.4 Linux Alpha Notes" at: http://www.mysql.com/documentation/mysql/bychapter/manual_Installing.html#Li nux-Alpha I installed the Compaq Linux Alpha compiler (ccc and cxx) and built the latest MySQL source with configure flags: CC=ccc CFLAGS="-fast" CXX=cxx CXXFLAGS="-fast -noexceptions -nortti" ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql --disable-shared --with-extra-charsets =complex --enable-thread-safe-client --with-mysqld-ldflags=-non_shared --wit h-client-ldflags=-non_shared Yay, it works! However I cannot benchmark it using sql-bench: [root@jive mysql]# make test PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl -I../blib/arch -I../blib/lib -I/usr/lib/perl5/5.6.0/alpha-linu x -I/usr/lib/perl5/5.6.0 -e 'use Test::Harness qw(&runtests $verbose); $verbose=0; runtests @ARGV;' t/*.t t/00base............install_driver(mysql) failed: Can't load '../blib/arch/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so' for module DBD::mysql: ../blib/arch/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so: undefined symbol: _OtsMove at /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.0/alpha-linux/DynaLoader.pm line 200. at (eval 1) line 3 Compilation failed in require at (eval 1) line 3. Perhaps a required shared library or dll isn't installed where expected at t/00base.t line 38 I've tried using Msql-Mysql-modules version 1.2216 and version 1.2218. For the latter version I've tried compiling using the ccc compaq compiler with success. However it is failing in DynaLoader.pm which to my knowledge is a module for loading C libraries into perl. So my question now is.. do I need to recompile Perl with the CCC compiler? What steps did the MySQL team take to get sql-bench running on the alpha EV6 machine? I'd prefer to continue using sql-bench as its easier imho than installing a 3rd party benchmark app. Thanks, Ron Jamison -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Trond Eivind Glomsrød Sent: Thursday, December 13, 2001 9:39 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: MySQL Alpha Linux binary distribution: Core dumped on AlphaServer 1200 Sinisa Milivojevic <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > Ron Jamison writes: > > Hi, > > > > I'm trying to use the available MySQL Linux Alpha binary distribution on > > this AlphaServer: > > > > Linux jive.shadowtrance.com 2.4.9-12smp #1 SMP Tue Oct 30 17:54:45 EST > > 2001 alpha unknown > > > > Running RedHat 7.1 Alpha Deluxe, > > > > Using MySQL 3.23.46 from: > > > > http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/mysql/mysql-3.23.46-unknown-linux-gnu-alp > > haev6.tar.gz > > > > Thanks in advance! > > > > Ron Jamison > > Hi! > > Try a binary from our site.
