MySQL requires libc Version 5.4.12 or newer. It's known to
work with libc 5.4.46. glibc Version 2.0.6 and later should
also work. There have been some problems with the glibc RPMs from
Red Hat, so if you have problems, check whether there are any updates.
The glibc 2.0.7-19 and 2.0.7-29 RPMs are known to work.
If you are using Red Hat 8.0 or a new glibc 2.2.x library, you may see
mysqld die in gethostbyaddr(). This happens because the new
glibc library requires a stack size greater than 128K for this call.
To fix the problem, start mysqld with the --thread-stack=192K
option. (Use -O thread_stack=192K before MySQL 4.)
This stack size is now the default on MySQL 4.0.10 and above, so you should
not see the problem.
If you are using gcc 3.0 and above to compile MySQL, you must install
the libstdc++v3 library before compiling MySQL; if you don't do
this, you will get an error about a missing __cxa_pure_virtual
symbol during linking.
On some older Linux distributions, configure may produce an error
like this:
Syntax error in sched.h. Change _P to __P in the /usr/include/sched.h file. See the Installation chapter in the Reference Manual. |
Just do what the error message says. Add an extra underscore to the
_P macro name that has only one underscore, then try again.
You may get some warnings when compiling. Those shown here can be ignored:
mysqld.cc -o objs-thread/mysqld.o mysqld.cc: In function `void init_signals()': mysqld.cc:315: warning: assignment of negative value `-1' to `long unsigned int' mysqld.cc: In function `void * signal_hand(void *)': mysqld.cc:346: warning: assignment of negative value `-1' to `long unsigned int' |
If mysqld always dumps core when it starts, the problem may be that
you have an old `/lib/libc.a'. Try renaming it, then remove
`sql/mysqld' and do a new make install and try again. This
problem has been reported on some Slackware installations.
If you get the following error when linking mysqld,
it means that your `libg++.a' is not installed correctly:
/usr/lib/libc.a(putc.o): In function `_IO_putc': putc.o(.text+0x0): multiple definition of `_IO_putc' |
You can avoid using `libg++.a' by running configure like this:
shell> CXX=gcc ./configure |
