mysql.h error in Ubuntu (zabbix install)

khilari · 07-05-2006, 05:05 PM

I get this error when i run the configure command for zabbix installation.

configure: error: Invalid MySQL directory - unable to find mysql.h

The command i am running from the root of zabbix was
# ./configure --enable-server --with-mysql --with-net-snmp

I am following the instructions from
http://www.zabbix.com/manual/v1.1/install_server.php

Please advise how i can overcome that error. Thanks,

You miss the mysql header files. Check your distro's mysql packages for mysql-devel or something like that and install it

I had to install the development pack

apt-get install libmysqlclient14-dev

Thanks,
