: I'm trying to compile mysql on HP-UX but in vain. : The error message tells that "virtual memory exhausted" for some : reason, but I can't understand why. Did your HP-UX get less memory??

You can define in configure --with-low-memory, and re-make.

Thank you for the advices. "--with-low-memory" worked fine. I was surprised because I've done some compiling on this machine, but never had this trouble.

Thanks again!

The trouble file is sql_yacc.cc -- it has a lot of inline functions, and that really puts a stress on memory requirements. How much will depend on the archicture, on Linux, for example, I had 64 MB physical RAM, 128 MB swap, and I had to make sure nothing else was running on the machine ( close Netscape, exit X) while compiling MySQL to avoid the error you have experienced.

On Alpha with 128 MB physical RAM and 256 MB swap, at one point the only thing left was 6 MB of swap.
