Installing sphinx

[Yuksel]

Hello,

I want to use sphinx as the default search method for ipb, but have some trouble while installing it.

I followed the steps in the resources page (http://community.invisionpower.com/resources/official.html?record=181)
After the command ./confiugure, i try to use the command make, but i get the following error message;

make[2]: Entering directory `/tmp/sphinx-0.9.9/src'

Anyone know what the problem can be?

looks like a mysql lib problem, check you have all the libs needed for sphinx, like mysql-dev

Im no expert but looks like it to me, and i know i needed dev on mine ;)

Hope this helps

I have mysql, mysqli and odbc installed correctly.

[AngelFire]

do you have mysql-devel installed, and googleing parts of that error are coming up as mysql problems, other than that i cant help sorry

Hello ! :)

I'm not conversant with servers. Anyway, here is how it worked for me : first I extracted the files in the /tmp directory (it seems like you did this too ?) and all the rest didn't work. So I extracted the file to another directory and the rest worked.

that would mean you probably don't have permissions to write in /tmp

I couldn't find any proper installation for this. What i read about it is that mysql-devel is default added to the mysql libraries. So installing it is not needed.

I will try this, but i doubt that this will work, because i can use the command ./configure without problems.

Anyway, both thanks for the responses.

what o/s are you using?

yum install mysql-devel
apt-get install mysql-devel

they might help
