Hi all, I had no problem with compiling 4.1.2-alpha (or 4.0.x) and it has been working fine. But for both 4.1.5-gamma and 4.1.7, when I get to make test, all the tests fail. Normally, alias (the first one) fails and the whole thing stops, but using --force, they all fail. I get a log error about not being able to connect to localhost via the socket. What is odd is that when I recompile 4.1.2 on the same partition on the same machine, make test works fine. So sockets and localhost lookup seem to work there.
I have installed 4.1.5-gamma on another machine with no problems, with the same configure options. The machine that is failing is a slackware 8.0 linux distribution that has been heavily upgraded, running gcc 3.2.2. I have tried different configure options and upgraded several other applications (bison, notably), but no luck. I have a feeling that I am missing a new dependency somewhere or something glaringly obvious, but after having scoured the manual, list archives, and google for several weeks, still cannot figure out what it might be. There are no configure errors or compile errors to indicate that there is a new requirement missing. Many thanks in advance for any thoughts on what has changed between 4.1.2 and the later versions, or what else might be tripping me. m PS The configure script I am using is for all three versions: _________________________ #!/bin/sh CFLAGS="-O3 -mcpu=pentiumpro" CXX=g++ \ CXXFLAGS="-O3 -mcpu=pentiumpro -felide-constructors -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti" \ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql \ --enable-thread-safe-client \ --with-openssl \ --with-extra-charsets=ucs2 \ --with-mysqld-user=mysql \ --enable-assembler \ && make && make test ____________________________ Also tried using gcc in place of g++. _______________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
