MySQL plugin compilation error

[Mellnik]

The MySQL plugin gives me an error:

/usr/bin/ld: /home/mta/multitheftauto-modules-read-only/mta-mysql/luaimports/libluaimports.a(luaimports.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.rodata.str1.1' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC 
/home/mta/multitheftauto-modules-read-only/mta-mysql/luaimports/libluaimports.a: could not read symbols: Bad value 
  

On Ubuntu 12

After running:

./configure

make

[ccw]

Maybe this:

autoreconf -ifv 
./configure 
make 

Type any errors it gives in to google

[Mellnik]

Doesn't work either. Yes also looking on google.

[ccw]

Could be that your compiling a 64 bit module. It would need to be 32 bit for MTA

[Mellnik]

Oh, I tried it on another machine with 32bit, no error appeared, but it looks like no .so has been output.

I also searched for it: find -name 'mta_mysql.so'

[ccw]

Might be called something else. Look for .so files

[Mellnik]

I used "find -name '*.so'" to search for it

But only this one was found:

mellnik@ubuntu:~/multitheftauto-modules-read-only/mta-mysql$ find -name '*.so' 
./src/.libs/libmta_mysql.so 
  

While compiling I noticed this:

ranlib .libs/libmta_mysql.a 
creating libmta_mysql.la 
(cd .libs && rm -f libmta_mysql.la && ln -s ../libmta_mysql.la libmta_mysql.la) 
  

[ccw]

I guess libmta_mysql.so is what you need.

Also, can I ask why you are compiling rather than using a binary?

[Mellnik]

Because I wanted to link it with MySQL 5.5 rather than 5.1
