Yes, currently we have build machines for these two only.
There are proposals to upgrade them to run AIX 5.1 and 5.3, 
respectively, but this issue has not yet been decided.
Also, the machine running 4.3 may not be able to generate 64 bit binaries.


I tried both versions (32 and
64-bit) for 5.2 on my 5.1 box, but received this error when trying to
install:
To be expected: AIX provides upward compatibility only, but not 
downward. The C library contains version information to check this.

You can run binaries generated on AIX 4.3 on 5.1, and this should work 
without problems.
(I did not specifically check the differences between these two, but I 
did not get any info this causes problems. If an interface changes, IBM 
typically provides compatibility packages providing the old interface 
on the new OS.)

Currently, we can not provide it.

MySQL on AIX 5.1

2005-05-09 Thread Jon Earle
Hi folks,

I need to get a version of MySQL running on AIX 5.1, but I see that the only
versions available are for v5.2 and v4.3.3.  I tried both versions (32 and
64-bit) for 5.2 on my 5.1 box, but received this error when trying to
install:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] mysql] bin/resolveip
exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program bin/resolveip because of the following
errors:
0509-130 Symbol resolution failed for resolveip because:
0509-136   Symbol _isinf (number 44) is not exported from
   dependent module /usr/lib/libc.a(shr.o).
0509-192 Examine .loader section symbols with the
 'dump -Tv' command.

It is possible to get a current working version for 5.1?  For the life of me,
I cannot get 4.1.11 to compile under this OS using gcc and not having another
compiler at hand, I'm kinda down a dead-end road.

Note:  I just installed 4.1.10a for AIX 4.3.3 and resolveip seems to work. 
Would still like to get a current version (4.1.11 for AIX5.1), or get it to
compile.

Cheers!
Jon
