Re: [Nagios-users] check_mysql compile issue - x86_64

[Chris S. <chr...@da...>]

It's not the *best* solution but a work around to this is to manually
edit the configure file before doing your ./configure as the configure
file has /usr/lib hard-coded and won't figure out /usr/lib64 without
some help

*note* all this is from a Red Hat point of view, may require some
modification for your build

find MYSQLLIBDIR=$MYSQL/lib
chage it to

MYSQLLIBDIR=$MYSQL/lib64

then use --with-mysql=/usr in the configure.

That process worked for me..
