I'm trying to bild Rexx/SQL for OORexx and MariaDB on Linux Mint (based on Ubuntu "Noble"). Couldn't find mysql.h until I downloaded MariaDB's connector package. Couldn't find lib, finally created link libmysqlclient.so to libmariadb.so.3 after this, configure ran, but make fails in compile with many type errors re: symlink to libmariadb.so.3 does this make any sense? re: type errors are these caused by the use of ooRexx 5.2? Is there a cheat sheet I can use to change rexx/SQL's types ? the first...

Hi Erich, I agree on the sad state of the website, it's been neglected for quite a while. Do you have a recommendation for a proper CMS? I have no idea what was used in the past. Do you know what is used for NetRexx.org? I am leaning toward 'borrowing' as much as I can from that site. I'll look into what to do to get this patch reflected in the website.

Using Ubuntu 22.04 ooRexx 5.0.0 building a module for Apache httpd 2.4. The build seems to complete without error, but when Apache loads the resulting .so module, it reports RexxVariablePool as undefined. Can anyone tell me where this entry point is defined in ooRexx 5.0.0? Has something changed in this area (rexxapi??) recently? taf
