Fedora Core 2 / Mysql 4 ?

[TehPropheT]

Hi there!

I have purchased a server running fedora core 2 and plesk 7.5.
As default mysql 3.2.3 is installed. Fedora core 2 will not upgrade to mysql 4 as its not listed in yum.

I seem to have a problem with mysqlclient when compiling so i was wondering if the latest rpm from mysql.org if it would fix this or would trying to run mysql 4 totally mess up my server?

This is the error:

[root@localhost ticker]# make
gcc -O3 -g -Wall -c -o ticker.o ticker.c
gcc -O3 -g -Wall -c -o score.o score.c
gcc -O3 -g -Wall -c -o update.o update.c
gcc -O3 -g -Wall -c -o core_sql.o core_sql.c
gcc -O3 -g -Wall -c -o helper.o helper.c
gcc -O3 -g -Wall -c -o battle.o battle.c
gcc -O3 -g -Wall -c -o cleanup.o cleanup.c
gcc -O3 -g -Wall -c -o logging.o logging.c
gcc -O -g ticker.o score.o update.o core_sql.o helper.o battle.o cleanup.o logging.o -o ticker -lmysqlclient -lcrypt -lz
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lmysqlclient
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [ticker] Error 1


Any suggestions how about to solve this would be very much appricated, but i would like to upgrade to the latest mysql 4 version if possible.


Thanks for any adivce!

I have mysql 4 rpms for FC2 available in my yum archive

what distro are you using?

yum search mysql only shows the ones i have installed which are 3 2 3.

they do not appear in yum list available either.

You have to add the atomic channel to your /etc/yum.conf, see the examples at bottom of http://www.atomicrocketturtle.com/atomic/ then do yum check-update and mysql4 should appear.

You need to make sure you've got my [atomic] channel added. Channel info is listed here:
