I am running a debian linux server and I need mysqlplus installed. There isn't a package yet for debian (at least not to my knowledge) to install it. So, I downloaded the mysql++ 1.7.9 source to install it. I am running version 2.95.4 of gcc. Is there something I am doing wrong? Do I need to install newer distributions? Here are the various error messages I get.
When I run "automake" I get the errors: automake: Makefile.am: required file `./INSTALL' not found automake: Makefile.am: required file `./NEWS' not found automake: Makefile.am: required file `./COPYING' not found automake: Makefile.am: required file `./AUTHORS' not found automake: Makefile.am: required file `./ChangeLog' not found automake: couldn't open `Configure': No such file or directory When I run "make" I get: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lz collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [libsqlplus.la] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/www/mysql/mysql++-1.7.9/sqlplusint' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/www/mysql/mysql++-1.7.9' make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2 And when I run "make install" I get: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lz collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [libsqlplus.la] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/www/mysql/mysql++-1.7.9/sqlplusint' make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 balrog:/home/gandalf/mysql/mysql++-1.7.9# Thanks
