configure nagios with mysql

[Markus Hackethal]

Hello list,
i am just new to the list and got some trouble
to install nagios 1.2 + mysql on redhat 9.0
with mysql-3.23.58-1.9 ( devel also installed )
I browsed through the ML but couldnt find
anything that would help me.

I configured nagios with these options:

 ./configure --prefix=/var/www/nagios/ --with-nagios-user=nagios --with-nagios-grp=nagios --with-mysql-xdata \
 --with-mysql-status --with-mysql-comments --with-mysql-extinfo --with-mysql-retention --with-mysql-downtime \
 --with-mysql-lib=/usr/lib/mysql/ --with-mysql-inc=/usr/include/mysql/

my ld.so.conf:

/usr/lib/mysql
/usr/include/mysql

The problem is that the configure scripts always says lmysqlclient not installed.

<snap>
checking for main in -lmysqlclient... (cached) no


*** MySQL library could not be located... **************************

You chose to compile Nagios with MySQL support, but I was unable to
locate the MySQL library on your system.  If the library is
installed,  use the --with-mysql-lib and --with-mysql-inc arguments
to specify the locations of the MySQL library and include files.
</snap>

Well i read in ML that the script requires mysql.h
[root at server3 SOURCES]# find /usr/include/mysql/ -name mysql.h
/usr/include/mysql/mysql.h

my /usr/lib/mysql directory includes these files:
[root at server3 mysql]# pwd
/usr/lib/mysql
[root at server3 mysql]# ls
libdbug.a         libmysqlclient_r.a          libmysqlclient.so.10.0.0
libheap.a         libmysqlclient_r.so         libmystrings.a
libmerge.a        libmysqlclient_r.so.10      libmysys.a
libmyisam.a       libmysqlclient_r.so.10.0.0  libnisam.a
libmyisammrg.a    libmysqlclient.so
libmysqlclient.a  libmysqlclient.so.10

therfor i think that all requirements are available.

Maybe anyone can help me solving this problem.
Or is there something that is missing?

Friendly regards,

Markus Hackethal
