1] in my experience, rlm_perl doesn't like apple's perl install - haven't had the time to really figure out why, but installing my own build (tested with threaded/shared and w/o threads/static versions) of 5.8.8 and pointing to it does the trick. Once you've got your own perl installed, add this in your ./configure flags :

--with-mysql-lib-dir={your prefix}/lib/mysql5/mysql

--with-mysql-include-dir={your prefix}/include/mysql5

Note, my installs of perl and mysql have been done via the macports system, so you'll want to double-check your paths against what i've shown here.

Hope this helps!

P.S.: Another important thing, freeradius' default configure is set up to try to install all stable modules, but without strict dependencies. So modules that aren't necessary for basic functionality will fail (to build) silently if you're missing libraries they need (including, unixodbc, postgresql, mysql, kerberos).

Hi,

I'm trying to build the current version of freeradius on my Mac OS X 10.5 Intel 64bit computer.

First, I have troubles with the configure script. Even if I show the script my exact location of the MySQL include files using --with-mysql-include-dir and similar, I'm getting warnings that mysql.h has not been found and that the MySQL module will be disabled. BTW: This also happens on my Debian server, where MySQL is installed in the standard directories.

Then, when running make, I'm getting the following error:

ranlib: archive member: .libs/rlm_perl.a(DynaLoader.a) fat file for cputype (18) cpusubtype (0) is not an object file (bad magic number)

ar: internal ranlib command failed

Any thoughts?

Thanks for your help!

Walter
