Compile barnyard-0.2.0 on RHEL v4 WS -error (snort works)


Posted by icurnet on June 14, 2005 06:29:03

I am running RHEL v4 WS here, using RPMs for mysql, etc. just like I have always done. However, when I run ./configure --enable-mysql to compile barnyard I get the following error:

[snip]
checking for strerror... yes
checking for /usr/include/mysql/mysql.h... yes
checking for mysql_real_connect in -lmysqlclient... no

**********************************************
ERROR: unable to find mysqlclient library
checked in the following places
/usr/lib/mysql
**********************************************

RPMs installed:
mysql-4.1.10a-2.RHEL4.1
mysql-devel-4.1.10a-2.RHEL4.1
mysql-server-4.1.10a-2.RHEL4.1
pcre-4.5-3
pcre-devel-4.5-3
gcc-3.4.3-22.1

I was able to compile snort-2.2.0 with no errors (./configure --with-mysql).

Contents of /usr/lib/mysql are:

Any help is appreciated (and a good nights sleep might make a solution jump out tomorrow, but reply anyway).

Thanks for the reply but you lost me a little there ;)

I have not gotten around this issue. If you can help please let me know.

Thanks!

Sorry about that.
I nearly always use rpm for software installs on linux. We are using RHEL4 here for our sensor and test updates on another box before pushing them out to the sensor.

The specfile I included is what I used to build our production barnyard install. I can make the rpm or source rpm available if it would help you.

I tested my spec file for barnyard on RHEL4 after yesterdays up2date run. I was able to rebuild a barnyard RPM for for our use here.

If you are building an rpm are you using the configure macro or a manually created configure command in your specfile. If you are building by hand what does your configure command look like. Mine (created by the %configure macro for rpm) is:
./configure --build=i686-redhat-linux-gnu --host=i686-redhat-linux-gnu \ --target=i386-redhat-linux-gnu --program-prefix= --prefix=/usr \
--exec-prefix=/usr --bindir=/usr/bin --sbindir=/usr/sbin --sysconfdir=/etc \
--datadir=/usr/share --includedir=/usr/include --libdir=/usr/lib \
--libexecdir=/usr/libexec --localstatedir=/var --sharedstatedir=/usr/com \
--mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --enable-mysql

On closer inspection of differences between my install and what you had listed I also have mysqlclient10-3.23.58-4.RHEL4.1 installed. If this is your problem it would be strange as ldd shows that barnyard is linked against /usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.14 not /usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.10

HTH,
dawookie

icurnet, I am running into the same problem in Ubuntu 6.10,
Did you manage to solve the problem?
Thanks
