Hello

I have two problems with latest MySQL (4.1.7) under Solaris 9. I am using SUN provided C compiler (cc: Sun C 5.6 2004/07/15) to compile packages. I need urgently to use MySQL, so any fast response will be highly appreciated.

First problem is, that when I try to compile MySQL 4.1.7 from sources after configuring with 'CC=cc CFLAGS="-Xa -fast -native -xstrconst -mt -xarch=v8plus" CXX=CC CXXFLAGS="-noex -mt" ./configure --prefix=/opt/local/web/mysql --enable-assembler' (as recommended in http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Solaris.html) I get following problems :

1. Compilation fails, because :

"history.c", line 734: undefined symbol: VIS_WHITE

Solaris 9 has /usr/platform/sun4u/include/sys/vis.h, but no VIS_WHITE defined in there.

I can easily fix this problem with undefining HAVE_VIS_H in config.h file and compile continues.

2. Second failure (and I have no solution for it) is following :

Making all in client /bin/bash ../libtool --preserve-dup-deps --mode=link CC -O3 -DDBUG_OFF -noex -mt -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -DHAVE_RWLOCK_T -o mysql mysql.o readline.o sql_string.o completion_hash.o ../cmd-line-utils/libedit/libedit.a -lcurses ../libmysql/libmysqlclient.la -lposix4 -lcrypt -lgen -lsocket -lnsl -lm ../zlib/libz.la CC -O3 -DDBUG_OFF -noex -mt -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -DHAVE_RWLOCK_T -o .libs/mysql mysql.o readline.o sql_string.o completion_hash.o ../cmd-line-utils/libedit/libedit.a -lcurses ../libmysql/.libs/libmysqlclient.so -lpthread -lthread -lpthread -lthread ../zlib/.libs/libz.a -lpthread -lthread -lposix4 -lcrypt -lgen -lsocket -lnsl -lm -lpthread -lthread -R/opt/local/web/mysql/lib/mysql Undefined first referenced symbol in file hash_key ../libmysql/.libs/libmysqlclient.so ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to .libs/mysql *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `mysql'

I think hash_key is defined in ./libmysql/hash.c and hash.o is compiled into libmysqlclient.so, so why it is undefined ? Any ideas ? BTW, problem is exactly same if I use --disable-shared in configure line :

/bin/bash ../libtool --preserve-dup-deps --mode=link cc -O -DDBUG_OFF -Xa -fast -native -xstrconst -xarch=v8plus -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -DHAVE_RWLOCK_T -o mysqltest mysqltest.o my_getsystime.o ../libmysql/libmysqlclient.la -lposix4 -lcrypt -lgen -lsocket -lnsl -lm ../zlib/libz.la cc -O -DDBUG_OFF -Xa -fast -native -xstrconst -xarch=v8plus -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -DHAVE_RWLOCK_T -o mysqltest mysqltest.o my_getsystime.o ../libmysql/.libs/libmysqlclient.a -lpthread -lthread -lpthread -lthread ../zlib/.libs/libz.a -lpthread -lthread -lposix4 -lcrypt -lgen -lsocket -lnsl -lm -lpthread -lthread Undefined first referenced symbol in file hash_key ../libmysql/.libs/libmysqlclient.a(hash.o) ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to mysqltest *** Error code 1

Second problem is, that when I use precompiled package for Solaris 9 mysql-standard-4.1.7-sun-solaris2.9-sparc.tar.gz available for download from MySQL, so I can't compile any soft with libs from that package, because any compilation ends with following error :

Undefined first referenced symbol in file __cmpdi2 /opt/local/web/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.a(libmysql.o) __floatdidf /opt/local/web/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.a(libmysql.o) __floatdisf /opt/local/web/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.a(libmysql.o) ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to conftest

I am not using GNU lib (I think these symbols are defined in GNU lib?) and do not have that package installed. How should I deal with these undefined symbols without GNU lib ?

Thank you for any advises according all problems.

With best regards Martynas
