MySQL Bugs: #57295: MySQL 5.1.51 not compiling from source

Bug #57295	MySQL 5.1.51 not compiling from source
Submitted:	6 Oct 2010 22:09	Modified:	25 Oct 2010 22:27
Reporter:	Gabriel Torres	Email Updates:
Status:	Not a Bug	Impact on me:	None
Category:	MySQL Server: Compiling	Severity:	S1 (Critical)
Version:	5.1.51	OS:	Other (Debian)
Assigned to:		CPU Architecture:	Any

Description:
The source code of 5.1.51 isn't compiling, exiting with the errors:

../libmysql/.libs/libmysqlclient.so: undefined reference to `_intel_fast_memset'
../libmysql/.libs/libmysqlclient.so: undefined reference to `_intel_fast_memcpy'

Researching online, this means that there are references to the Intel C++ compiler somewhere in the source code.

I have GCC installed, of course.

How to repeat:
download source code mysql-5.1.51.tar.gz
tar -xvzf mysql-5.1.51.tar.gz
cd mysql-5.1.51
./configure --withtout-server
make

Then the error messages will show up.

Suggested fix:
There something broken in the package.

I assume you meant '--without-server' , (not '--withtout-server'). But nevermind.

I cannot reproduce this problem on ubuntu 10.4.
Could you please provide output of

uname -a

?

Linux mail.clubedohardware.com.br 2.6.26-1-686-bigmem #1 SMP Sat Jan 10 19:13:22 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux

Thanks.

Thank you for the feedback.

Please also send us config.log file.

Config.log as requested

Attachment: bug-data-57295.zip (application/x-zip-compressed, text), 37.46 KiB.

Thank you for the feedback.

config.log looks OK and shows gcc compiler was choose. But error you get is from Intel compiler. Do you have Intel compiler installed too?

No, that's exactly the odd part. Somehow ./configure is setting up to use Intel compiler, even though I don't have it.

I couldn't repeat too:
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/miguel/temp/mysql-5.1.51/win'

Thank you for the feedback.

Could you also please send output of `ldd ../libmysql/.libs/libmysqlclient.so`?

I am not able to repeat this on debian.

Neither on 32bit nor on 64bit.

Please show output from ./configure

> Somehow ./configure is setting up to use Intel compiler, even though I don't have it.

Actually it means configure sets gcc, but 'make' tries to link with some libs, that had been compiled by icc.

Did you install before compiling on that computer any icc-related software? Or may be icc compiled mysql?

Hum... Before (i.e., MySQL =< 5.1.50) I used the icc binaries, however you are not putting the icc compiled binaries for download anymore (i.e., 5.1.51). So maybe there is "old stuff" from the 5.1.50 icc laying around somewhere in my server... I will take a look into this possibility.

It turned out to be a wrong file installed "everywhere", by carefully reading the last lines before the error, I could find that I copied libz.a and libz.la that where compiled using ICC from MySQL 5.1.50 to /usr/local/mysql/lib/, /usr/lib/ and /usr/local/lib of my server. Deleting these files solved the problem. 

We can close this ticket. The problem was specific to my server configuration.

Thank you for all the support.
