Re: Error when compiling for Mac OS X 10.9

[David Parker <dparker@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

The solution in the other case was to use only "--with-mysql" or "--with-mysqli" without specifying the path to an existing installation of MySQL on the host.  When you don't specify the path to MySQL, PHP compiles with it's native driver instead and generally this is sufficient.

That said, in this specific case I wonder if perhaps you are trying to compile 64-bit PHP against 32-bit MySQL, or vice-versa.  When compiling PHP with MySQL support, the architecture (32-bit vs. 64-bit) of PHP and MySQL should match.

Sorry, but neither you nor Jorge gave any indication as to the level
of debugging or searching you had done so at least making certain
that you had done some basic research didn't seem unreasonable. Had
you posted previously that you had followed the various google
discussion threads to no effect, that would have been useful
information for the (mac OS/php) community.

Additionally, while David Parker may have helped you, none of that
discussion (or even a final summary) made it to the list, from what
I've seen, so it didn't add to the publicly available knowledge set.
Had it, Jorge might not have had to ask his question.

By the way, even though the list's headers set the Reply-to to the
sender's address, please reply to the list address (unless you
really want an off-list discussion).
