Using Older Versions of Iguana With MySQL |
If you are using a version of Iguana that is older than version 4.0, to make MySQL work and visible as a database choice for Iguana channel configurations, you must ensure that the MySQL shared object is included in your platform's dynamic library load path.
In a typical Linux distribution, the shared object is located in /usr/lib/mysql/lib. So, before starting Iguana you should export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/user/lib/mysql/lib.
 | ||
| The location of the file may be different, depending on your specific UNIX or Linux distribution. If your MySQL distribution does not have the shared object, you can build it using the instructions found in the MySQL Reference Manual. You should find instructions that show you how to build the shared object for MySQL 5.1. | ||

The table below shows the shared object name and dynamic load library load path for each supported platform:
| Platform | Shared Object Name | Dynamic Library Path Env Var |
|---|---|---|
| Linux | libmysqlclient_r.so | LD_LIBRARY_PATH |
| Solaris | libmysqlclient_r.so | LD_LIBRARY_PATH |
| Mac | libmysqlclient_r.so | DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH |
| Hpux | libmysqlclient_r.sl | LD_LIBRARY_PATH |
