Sendmail: 8.12.5
Patch: 8.12.5
MySQL: 3.23.55a
OS: 2.4.18-24.8 (RH80)

i think this may be mysql library error because it can be compiled normally on my old machine with

This is because you don't have the zlib header files and libraries installed, or you haven't modified the makefile in the appropriate way to ensure they are compiled in.

Try adding "-Lz" to the "CFLAGS" section in the sendmail Makefile, and that should solve the problem.

Yours,

Kev.

thanx, that solve error :)
i have zlib installed but don't have -lz in CFGAGS.
may be you add it to your patch ?
and...
how about typo in mysql_local.c mentioned in another topic ?
