[jdev] "MySQL client libraries not found" error

[Rex Lorenzo]

Hello,

I am trying to install jabber2d server (version 8) on Solaris 8 using MySQL
4.1.11 (standard) as its database.

My problem is when I try to configure jabberd I run into a problem stating
"MySQL client libraries not found". I  downloaded the Solaris 8, 32bit,
sparc binary from the mysql.com site and it is up and running.

Here is my configure command:

./configure --prefix=/w/web.02/install/jabber/jabberd/ \
	--enable-idn \
	--enable-debug \
	--enable-mysql \
 
--with-extra-library-path=/var/jabber/openssl/lib:/var/jabber/libidn/lib:/va
r/jabber/mysql/lib \
     	--with-extra-include-
path=/var/jabber/openssl/include:/var/jabber/libidn/include:/var/jabber/mysq
l/include
  			
Here is my configure error:

checking mysql.h usability... yes
checking mysql.h presence... yes
checking for mysql.h... yes
checking for mysql_init in -lmysqlclient... no
configure: error: MySQL client libraries not found

Any more details needed? Aren't the client libraries included with the
solaris binary?

This is what is in my /var/jabber/mysql/lib

bash-2.05b$ ls
libdbug.a           libmysqlclient.a    libmysqld.a         libmysys.a
libmysql.imp        libmysqlclient_r.a  libmystrings.a


Thank you,
