problem ./configure and MYSql

[Miha Bièek]

Hi I am having troubles setting freeRadius to work with MySql.
I 've studied the FAQ at:   http://wiki.freeradius.org/index.php/FAQ#It_says_.22Could_not_link_..._file_not_found.22.2C_what_do_I_do.3F, followed the instructions but I still can't get it to work.

I'm using mysql-5.0.45-linux-i686-glibc23. I just unpacked it to /usr/local ,added a symbolic refference to it (ln -s /usr/local/mysql-5.0.45-linux-i686-glibc23 mysql)
and ran the script to set up the database scripts/mysql_install_db --user=mysql.
I didn't bother setting up the radius database but that shouldn't matter at this stage. 
location of mysql_congig:   /usr/local/mysql/bin


Other configuration: ubuntu linux 6.06.1 on VMWare Player, the latest version of freeRadius from cvs.

//I set the path variable so it has the right path in it:
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games:/usr/local/mysql/bin

//To make sure:
miha at virtubuntu:~/radiusd$ echo $PATH
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games:/usr/local/mysql/bin

miha at virtubuntu:~/radiusd$ export PATH    //the tutorial suggest i should do a export                                                                                   //$PATH, but that doesnt work

miha at virtubuntu:~/radiusd$ sudo ./configure | grep mysql_config

//it outputs several lines, including unpopular:

checking for mysql_config... no
configure: WARNING: mysql libraries not found. Use --with-mysql-lib-dir=<path>.
configure: WARNING: mysql headers not found. Use --with-mysql-include-dir=<path>.
configure: WARNING: sql submodule 'mysql' disabled

//I also tried to use it with lib dir and include-dir:
miha at virtubuntu:~/radiusd$ sudo ./configure --with-mysql-lib-dir=/usr/local/mysql/lib -with-mysql-include-dir=/usr/local/mysql/include | grep mysql_config
//Result:
checking for mysql_config... no
configure: WARNING: mysql headers not found. Use --with-mysql-include-dir=<path>.
configure: WARNING: sql submodule 'mysql' disabled
//so it still doesn't find include dir??  Am I missing something ?




Please HELP, i'm running out ideas, time and luck. Is it possible that the problem lies in the compiler ? I installed g++, because i was having troubles with gcc.
I can change the OS or Mysql version if that is the problem. The official page says that freeRadius works "out of the box" with MySql. Does anyone know a configuration that works ?
