Digging through the archives and stw, I've seen some echos of this approach, but nothing firm. Can anyone please referr me to some information?

[Fwd: Re: [Samba] Samba with Mysql, Compilation of version 3.0.11]
Hello again,
Related to previous bug, i have corrected few things from util.c,
3 char* data structures were defined more than one time so i commented
them in code, it seem to compile now...
data_path
state_path
cache_path
Thanks anyway.

but this output shows that you still use 3.0.20.
and that's not the best version for mysql backends...!
i must note that i have made a small mistake regarding the
--enable-static=pdb_mysql.
it's --with-static-modules=pdb_mysql .!!

Hello Collen!
I am actually making serious searchs in the configure script. Here

Compiling lib/system_smbd.c
As you can see here, nevermind if i ask for static, shared or
magic-cookied mysql plugin, it NEVER gets to compile it!
So there should be a misstake in some Makefile or rule file, the
problem is at compilation-time!
I will try to get the 3.0.11 from somewhere (I did not find it at
the link you gave me that is why i took 3.0.09).
Please, if you know somebody who can make the change in the makefile
scripts, tell me, or if i can get a way to compile pdb_mysql.c
alone, i'm interested too. I think now it is pointless to play
arround with configure script parametters, because it doesn't
propagate correctly directives to the compilation makefiles.
N.B.: The path to be given to the configure script seems to be the
path to mysql_config BINARY, in the configure script is made a call
to it with parametters to get the include path... So don't tell
anymore people to symlink if they have compiled from source, just
tell the configure script to ask the binary program "mysql_config"
(in configure script get the lines with $MYSQL_CONFIG
$mysqlconf_args --cflags | sed -e "s/'//g") ...
Anyway, thanks a lot for your help, i am a bit closer to find a
solution now!
I'll try tonight to get the v.11 and your advices in action :)
And, when you say if samba complains about not finding the plugin,
it does since the begining :O What chmod right 755 are you talking
about, i mean on what file?
Thanks!

Re: [Samba] pdb_mysql, pdb_pgsql and pdb_xml modules: request for maintainer
Hello Jelmer! Thank you for reading my "topic". First i appologize if i have sent too many mails, i thought it was helpy, i will not anymore :-) I am actually compiling version 3.0.11 since Collen told me it was a good choice for these PDB compilation issues (and i will keep people informed on what i have done if it works). About the mysql compilation problem, i don't think you should discontinue it, i bet many users are using it for convenience purpose, having a little network with many shares makes useless deployment of a big thing as LDAP, and is really easy to get some mysql DB accounts. I am used to do the same with my QMail or VSFTP installation (From source either, just because it was easyier to set up this kind of account storage method). About the compilation problem itselve, i really think it should be a simple thing to solve, i will have a look as soon as time will be helping my side. I really think it only depends on some pre-compilation option. I had a verry quick look at the configure script (i hate to give up), and the only point i have found for now is that the mysql prefix only gives the script the basic path to mysql install, then it tries to get in it "/bin/mysql/mysql_config", which is a small utility giving the some mysql distro-specific/from-source-compilation paths. If i can't sove the problem directly from the samba package (the compilation process is too much complex for me, i'm a c++ developper but i never do big projects :-( ) so if i you discontinue the samba+pdb modules bundles, i will manage to make a tutorial on how to make them work... In advance, excuse my bad english since it is not my kernel language :-) , and keep in touch if i have time to help! Pierre Jelmer Vernooij wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi!

Re: [Samba] Samba with Mysql, compilation problem.
Hello Collen, I've just try what you suggested. I have now a new error which is "*Can't find MySQL libraries while MySQL support is requested.*" But now, the configure script returns an error, not the compilation itselve (Since the make command is not started unless configure tells "i'm fine go ahead" :-) ) The configure script was called with these args: *--cache-file=./config.cache --with-fhs --enable-shared --enable-static --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --libdir=/etc/samba --with-privatedir=/etc/samba --with-piddir=/var/run/samba --localstatedir=/var --with-netatalk --with-pam --with-syslog --with-utmp --with-readline --with-pam_smbpass --with-libsmbclient --with-winbind --with-msdfs --with-automount --with-tdbsam --with-ldap --with-python=python2.3 --with-expsam=mysql --with-shared-modules=pdb_mysql* My actual filesystem configuration is as follows: * /usr/local/mysql/include/mysql is symlinked to /usr/include/mysql, so i virtualy have mysql.h and other header files in /usr/include/mysql/* * /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql is symlinked to /usr/lib/mysql, so i also virtually have all mysql libraries in /usr/lib/mysql/* look: "*ls /usr/lib/mysql/*" gives *libdbug.a libmerge.a libmyisammrg.alibmysqlclient.la libmysqlclient.so.14 libmystrings.a libnisam.a libheap.a libmyisam.a libmysqlclient.a libmysqlclient.so libmysqlclient.so.14.0.0 libmysys.a libvio.a* and "*ls /usr/include/mysql/*" *errmsg.hmy_alloc.h my_getopt.h my_no_pthread.h mysqld_error.h mysql_version.h readline.h sslopt-longopts.h keycache.h my_config.h my_global.h my_pthread.h mysql_embed.h my_sys.h sql_common.h sslopt-vars.h m_ctype.h my_dbug.h my_list.hmy_semaphore.h mysql.h my_xml.h sql_state.htypelib.h m_string.h my_dir.h my_net.h mysql_com.h mysql_time.hraid.h sslopt-case.h* But it seems that the configure script doesn't knows where to look in. I'm going to make further tests with the "*--with-mysql-prefix*" and "*--with-mysql-exec-prefix*", giving them some additionnal paths, in fact i dont know what more i can do :'( Anyway, thank you for the help!

[Samba] Samba with Mysql, compilation problem. (Additionnal information)
Hey people, i just had a compilation error! I'm pretty happy because it means that i am doing something wrong. It seems that the compiler doesn't find mysql.h include header file. The point is that i have all these includes files in this folder: /usr/local/mysql/include/mysql/ The ./configure call which has failed had: --enable-mysql --with-mysql --with-mysql-prefix=/usr/local/mysql --with-mysql-exec-prefix=/usr/mysql/bin --with-expsam=mysql at the end, i just added the bin suffix... So maybe the version are not compatible for each other? :O MySql version (14.7) Distrib 4.1.14 Samba Version (Which i wish to compile) is 3.0.14a Any advice? And sorry for the bad english!
