[OPEN-ILS-DEV] Evergreen on Red Hat Linux

[Frances Dean McNamara]

I wanted to share the below information with the list.  The suggested fix did work.  Dale was able to run autogen to completion last week.  Unfortunately, we still cannot log on with the client, however!  We need to fix that so we can load bibs and items.

Hello Frances,

If you are using libdbi-0.8.3 (the latest version), there is a problem with the configure scripts that causes the --enable-libdbi to actually DISable linking, as linking is now the default behavior.  So, when building the drivers, make sure to leave that switch out completely:

./configure --disable-docs --with-pgsql

I have alerted the libdbi developers, and they confirmed the bug, but I don't think a fix will be rolled in until the next release.

Let me know if this helps,
Dan

Dan,

I noticed in a recent list posting you said you have moved to Red Hat.  We are almost there with getting our installation running but have run into the below problem.  As you can see, we're working with Bill Erickson, but I thought it was worth asking whether you have seen this problem.  Thanks.
