| Description |
|
The 5.1.38 RC binaries require a very recent version of glibc. The download page does mention this: "The binaries are built on Ubuntu 9.04 systems, linked against libc 2.9." However, most production linux systems won't have this new of a glibc. For example, RHEL 5.X uses glibc 2.5. When you try to run it, you get: ./mysqld: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.8' not found (required by ./mysqld) |

Re: 5.1.38 RC x86_64 binaries do not work on RHEL 5 Agree that it is a problem that the binaries depend on a new version of glibc. The previous release was built on Ubuntu 8.04, we were not sufficiently aware of this issue so the current release was built on Ubuntu 9.04 without checking for libc version issues. We are currently building on Ubuntu 8.04 in Buildbot. Ubuntu 8.04 has glibc 2.7, so that also will probably cause problems for RHEL 5. I will see how much work it will be to use Centos 5 instead for building the binary tarballs. Also, we expect to have centos 5 rpms soon, which could also be a solution. |

Re: 5.1.38 RC x86_64 binaries do not work on RHEL 5 we have RPM packages for CentOS now. Can you please try, if it works for you with RHEL 5: |
