MySQL, Solaris 9 and DBD::mysql

RT Users

Hi all;

I’ve been trying to install RT for a couple of weeks now, with
no luck at all.

I have run out of ideas related to getting DBD::mysql to work
on a brand spanking new Solaris 9 system with tons of stuff
added from the Solaris free software site.
( http://www.sunfreeware.com/ )

I’ve posted the gory details on the mysql install forum.

Ref: http://forums.mysql.com/read.php?11,7767,7767#msg-7767

I’ve seen tons of posts with simular problems, including a
few with suggested solutions. Unfortunately, none of them
seemed to work for me. Pointers would be appreciated.

Thanks

Thanks for helping.

“Recompiling Perl as a 64bit binary or recompiling the MySQL
client libraries (not necessarily the server, there’s a configure
option --without-server or so) as 32 bit should do.”

If my notes are accurate, I compiled it using the options recommended
in $MYSQL_SRC/Docs/manual.txt. (Note, no -m64).

Sun Solaris 8 SPARC with gcc' 3.2: CC=gcc CFLAGS=“-O3 -fno-omit-frame-pointer” CXX=gcc CXXFLAGS=“-O3
-fno-omit-frame-pointer -felide-constructors -fno-exceptions
-fno-rtti” ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql
–with-extra-charsets=complex --enable-thread-safe-client
–enable-local-infile --enable-assembler --with-named-z-libs=no
–with-named-curses-libs=-lcurses --disable-shared’

Is there anything in these options that looks inappropiate?
