Re: Bug using 32-bit libmysqlclient on a 64-bit system?
Unfortunately the decision to run 32-bit libs on 64-bit systems is outside of my control. Given that it *should* work I'm more interested in diagnosing whether this is a bug of some sort in libmysqlclient or a bug in my code/build procedure.

You should starting here: http://maketecheasier.com/run-32-bit-apps-in-64-bit-linux/2009/08/10 basicly you have to check that every lib you use is realy 32bit. Missing one is asking for trouble: random bugs, etc. Basicly everything else like running linux in a LXC Container, a vitual machine with qemu, or simply buy a 32bit box is more maintainable than mixing 32 und 64 bit application. They can run perfectly until some random momentum. re, wh Alex On Sat, Jun 4, 2011 at 10:06 AM, walter harms wha...@bfs.de wrote: It is basicly a not clever solution to run 32bit libs with a 64bit system.

Bug using 32-bit libmysqlclient on a 64-bit system?
I've got a 64-bit Linux system, with a 32-bit libmysqlclient (and a 64-bit), and a C program using the libmysqlclient API which behaves very differently depending on which platform it is compiled for. The program is: #include stdio.h #include string.h #include mysql.h int main() { MYSQL *conn = mysql_init(NULL); mysql_real_connect(conn, NULL, root, NULL, test_mysqldb, 0, NULL, 0); mysql_real_query(conn, SHOW COLLATION, strlen(SHOW COLLATION)); MYSQL_RES *result = mysql_store_result(conn); int n_fields = mysql_num_fields(result); MYSQL_FIELD *fields = mysql_fetch_fields(result); int i; for (i = 0; i n_fields; i++) { printf(%s: %d\n, fields[i].name, fields[i].type); } mysql_free_result(result); mysql_close(conn); } When run under 64-bit I get the expected result: alex@devalex:/tmp$ ./test Collation: 253 Charset: 253 Id: 8 Default: 253 Compiled: 253 Sortlen: 8 However when run under 32-bit I get something very unexpected: alex@devalex:/tmp$ ./test32 Collation: 253 CHARACTER_SET_NAME: 142345400 COLLATIONS: 142345464 : 142345496 : 142345584 def: 1280069443 I'm not sure what the issue is, and it may very well be on my end, but any debugging help you can provide would be great (this was originally extracted from a bug in a Python MySQL driver I'm working on using the ctypes FFI). Thanks, Alex
