Hi Barry,
I'm trying to install Barnyard with mysql enabled. ./configure --enable-mysql I keep getting the following message checking for mysql_real_connect in -lmysqlclient... no ****************************************************************** ERROR: unable to find mysqlclient library checked in the following places /usr/lib/mysql ****************************************************************** I've double checked and the path to the mysql library is correct. I've installed snort and a few other tools that use mysql and they all work fine. I'm running SuSE Linux.
probably you have the dynamic library of libmysql installed in /usr/lib/mysql. The linking of dynamic libraries is a little bit different than the static library. The easiest solution is to add /usr/lib/mysql to /etc/ld.so.conf and invoke "ldconfig". I guess this will solve this problem. Otherwise take a look at config.log and find the real reason why it does not find the library. Maybe some header files are not at the right place...
