>Description:
We are running MySQL 3.23.53 on Solaris 2.6. There seems to be a problem
with MySQL finding libz.so. A plain vanilla installation (using ./configure
with no extra arguments) results in make carping and then exiting. We thought
we had a sort of workaround in passing the following arguments to ./configure
(using tcsh):
env LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib -R/usr/local/lib" ./configure
--prefix=/usr/local/mysql-3.23.53
--with-client-ldflags="-R/usr/local/lib -L/usr/local/lib"
--with-mysqld-ldflags="-R/usr/local/lib -L/usr/local/lib"
Before running make, we set LDFLAGS again:
env LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib -R/usr/local/lib" make
Ommitting this step resulted in MySQL compiling and installing; however,
trying to connect to the database using DBI failed as libz.so could not
be found. This was remedied by explicitly setting the environment as above.
Running ldd in the mysql/lib/mysql directory produced the following
output:
ldd /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.10.0.0
libz.so => (file not found)
libsocket.so.1 => /usr/lib/libsocket.so.1
libnsl.so.1 => /usr/lib/libnsl.so.1
libm.so.1 => /usr/lib/libm.so.1
libc.so.1 => /usr/lib/libc.so.1
libdl.so.1 => /usr/lib/libdl.so.1
libmp.so.2 => /usr/lib/libmp.so.2
/usr/platform/SUNW,Ultra-Enterprise/lib/libc_psr.so.1
This behaviour was finally corrected by editing the Makefile in the
libmysql installation subdirectory as follows:
LINK = $(LIBTOOL) --mode=link $(CCLD) $(AM_CFLAGS) $(CFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) -o $@
was changed to
LINK = env LD_RUN_PATH=/usr/local/lib $(LIBTOOL) --mode=link
$(CCLD) $(AM_CFLAGS) $(CFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) -o $@
Adding LD_RUN_PATH seems to have solved the problem once and for all.
The problem first occurred when trying to install MySQL 3.23.51; our previous version
(3.23.41) was just fine.
>How-To-Repeat:
Attempt to install MySQL on Solaris 2.6 using libz.so without taking one or more of the
aforementioned steps.
>Fix:
See above.
