Hi I'm fairly new to Qmail and vpop, installing on a shiny new RH9 server
Qmail is installed, Mysql too, and I am trying to get vpopmail 5.2.1 to install, using configure with the following options: --enable-auth-logging=y --enable-mysql-logging=y --enable-clear-passwd=y --enable-logging=y --enable-mysql=y --enable-valias=y --enable-incdir=/usr/local/mysql/include/ --enable-libdir=/usr/local/mysql/lib/ It compiles without error, and (I think) relevant lines from the 'current settings' are auth inc = -I/usr/local/mysql/include/ auth lib = -L/usr/local/mysql/lib/ -lmysqlclient -lz when I run make, I get the following errors: ----------------- <snip> gcc -I. -I/usr/local/mysql/include/ -g -O2 -Wall -c file_lock.c gcc -I. -I/usr/local/mysql/include/ -g -O2 -Wall -c vpalias.c rm -f libvpopmail.a ar cru libvpopmail.a vpopmail.o md5.o bigdir.o vauth.o file_lock.o vpalias.o cdb/*.o ranlib libvpopmail.a gcc -I. -I/usr/local/mysql/include/ -g -O2 -Wall -c vchkpw.c gcc -g -O2 -Wall -o vchkpw vchkpw.o ibvpopmail.a -L/usr/local/mysql/lib/ -lmysqlclient -lz -lnsl -lcrypt -lm /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lz collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [vchkpw] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/vpopmail-5.2.1' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/vpopmail-5.2.1' make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2 ----------------- I can see the problem with -lz but I have no gcc dev experience Can you help me - what am I doing wrong ?
