Hello Everyone,

Tough I have moderate C programming skills, I.m kindy new to linux&nginx development, so please excuse any nub questions...

Im having a problem linking mysql client libraries with nginx, libraries are there and were installed with yum on my centos 5.0

my config line looks like that
CORE_LIBS="$CORE_LIBS -L/usr/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient"

all libs looks fine on the path

[root@localhost mysql]# cd /usr/lib/mysql
[root@localhost mysql]# ll
total 8268

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 6215 Mar 30 19:01 mysql_config

but when I try to compile nginx with my module I get the following error
...
objs/ngx_modules.o \
-lpcre -lssl -lcrypto -ldl -lzl -lmysqlclient
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lmysqlclient
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [objs/nginx] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/opt/nginx-1.0.0'
make: *** [build] Error 2


Any ideas whats going on here?

cheers,
Arley
