Problem with asterisk addons

Asterisk Asterisk Support

I’m upgrading my asterisk server at job to a x86_64. Everything is ok until I tried to install asterisk-addons. I can’t install any mysql related addons (realtime ,addon-sql)

The problem seem to be there :

checking for mysql_init in -lmysqlclient... no

But i do have mysql-libs install :

[root@localhost asterisk-addons-1.4.6]# ldconfig -v | grep mysql /usr/lib/mysql: libmysqlclient_r.so.15 -> libmysqlclient_r.so.15.0.0 libmysqlclient.so.15 -> libmysqlclient.so.15.0.0 /usr/lib64/mysql: libmysqlclient_r.so.15 -> libmysqlclient_r.so.15.0.0 libmysqlclient.so.15 -> libmysqlclient.so.15.0.0
And the mysql client is also installed.
Any help would be very nice!
Thanks

This appears to be a bug in the build system for Asterisk-Addons. Please report it at the Digium bug tracker at bugs.digium.com/ and a developer will get back to you as quickly as possible.

Sorry to revive an old thread but I just experienced the same problem.

It’s not the MySQL lib at all - the error is misleading - ensure you have the correct libz versions installed (if necessary move the ones in /usr/lib64 into /usr/lib as it appears the configure script looks in the wrong place for them)

Also ensure openssl-devel is installed - as this stage will fail if it can’t find libssl.

I did this and it worked fine :smile:
