Problem running Make Initialize-Database

RT Users
1

Hi All,

I’ve been reading this list lately to hopefully get a handle on RT and how it works, before I attempt to install this and deploy it for my company. I am attempting to run RT on a RH9 box. I got all the dependences to work and ran the make install with out any problems. But then when I ran the make initialize-database I run into some errors. Basically my problem is this:

When I run the “make initialize-database” I get

/usr/bin/perl: relocation error:
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so: undefined symbol: mysql_init
make: *** [initialize-database] Error 127

Any ideas???

Thanks,

Caleb

RH9 is not a good choice for RT, check the list archives for
specifics.

When I run the “make initialize-database” I get

/usr/bin/perl: relocation error:
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so: undefined symbol: mysql_init
make: *** [initialize-database] Error 127

perl 5.8.0 is an especially bad choice. it’s buggy, check the list
archives for specifics.

This error sounds like your DBD::mysql module was built wrong, a perl
problem.
