I switched my server from linux debian to NetBSD 1.6. All when fine until I tried to do ./configure for the mysql-3.23.52 from the source tar.gz.
Problem is, it keeps looping saying "can't cd to mit-pthreads". I did my homework and seeked a solution on mailing list, google etc and got nothing good. I installed mit-pthread 1.60b6 from the 1.6 packages collection of netbsd without any success, it's still whinning about not being able to change directory mit-pthreads.... I tried ./configure --without-mit-pthread but even if in the docs it says linux need linux threads and others like freebsd and solaris need maybe mit-pthreads I thought I could get around without it (not logic but hey, I tried). Then lot's of bad stuff is said about using mit pthreads with mysql... I haven't quite completely understood what were the differences but... Can you tell me if there's a patch something I could do to compile it anyway and get to use it with the stability it's supposed to have when compiled without problems etc... (oh btw, I tried the beta 4.0.4 version... not working either). It is telling me the same thing on and on and on (./configure will never stop) It restart from the beginning over and over... until a deadly kill -9 or whatever. Have a pleasant day, hope to get feedbacks soon! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
