ID: 42515 Comment by: jerry at scene-naturally dot dyndns dot org Reported By: geoffers at gmail dot com Status: Open Bug Type: MySQL related Operating System: Mac OS 10.4.10 PHP Version: 5.2.4 New Comment:
Try installing the source version either the 5.1 development version or the 5.0.nn version. doing so adds in the correct libs, etc. The 5.1 source is at the bottom of http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.1.html (note: usually binary packages are not suited for using to build other softwares.) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-09-01 19:54:36] geoffers at gmail dot com Description: ------------ As #42464 is marked as bogus, and I cannot therefore comment on that: The official MySQL binaries install at /usr/local/mysql. PHP tries to read from /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql, which does not exist. The prior bug was marked as bogus due to ./buildconf being used: on a non-"hackish" copy of PHP it fails too. Running just: % cd php-5.2.4 % ./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql ./configure doesn't fail like jani claimed. Instead, it says that a system library hasn't been found, and to email php-install. If you try to run make regardless, it succeeds, but you cannot do anything with the binary as it cannot load the libraries. Take a clean OS X install, install the mysql,org binary, then try to compile PHP as above. It'll fail. This isn't a bogus report. This is a real bug, which really makes PHP totally unusable. Reproduce code: --------------- % cd php-5.2.4 % ./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql % make Expected result: ---------------- Working PHP binary to be produced Actual result: -------------- A non-working PHP binary, trying to load dynamic libraries (which exist in /usr/local/mysql/lib) from /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=42515&edit=1
