Hi, I’m installing Asterisk Addons 1.4.7 on Asterisk 1.4.23.1. I have installed previously MySQL . When I do make menuselect, in the options about MySQL, thereis XXX written and I can not choose to install those options. I have read that XXX means that there are some dependecies problems, but I have installed MySQL and it works perfectly. Any Idea??? Thank you very much in advance. ---

Install the mysql client libraries and the related development files. Cheers. Marco Bruni [www.marcobruni.net](http://www.marcobruni.net) ---

I have installed mysql-server and mysql-client using RPM. Is that enough? ---

You should install the development package also, in the distro I use, opensuse, is libmysqlclient-devel. Cheers. Marco Bruni [www.marcobruni.net](http://www.marcobruni.net) ---

I had problems compiling 1.6.x and MySQL 3.23-?? Upgraded to MySQL 5.x Solved problem. Usually, these problems are caused by incorrect header files, or header files from previous versions of Asterisk. Try deleting the old header files > [@](#): > > rm -rf /usr/include/asterisk and rebuilding asterisk + addons What are the errors you are getting ?? Cheers Chris ---

I finally solved. I really don’t know why exactly. But the problem was that I was doing the ./configure using a de parameter --prefix==/usr/local/share/asterisk, both asterisk and asterisk addons (using the same for both of them), and maybe doing that, the asterisk addons didn’t find the location of some header or some files. I don’t know. So, I have solved just doing ./configure without --prefix and it works. I don’t know if I can help someone. Thank you very much all of you for your help and answers!!!
