configure: error: Berkeley DB version mismatch

Hi
I just started with LDAP. I am trying to install openLDAP2.2.15 on my lynux machine. I have already installed the Sleepycat Berkeley DB 4.2.52 (along with the two recommended patches). The configure script is giving the following error.
“configure: error: Berkeley DB version mismatch”.

Could somebody tell me how to resolve this issue?

Following are the installation logs.

configure: error: Berkeley DB version mismatch

I think U may be having an old DB3.x and multiple db.h files, in /usr/include, /usr/local/include, /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2/include, if so, remove DB3.X or rename the db.h of version 3.

I tried and hace checked each and every file db.h version - I still get the same error published here - Please can someonehelp here?

I got it resolved. You just need to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to directory where the BDB shared libraries are located.

Type the following line on the terminal you are working..
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="<BerkelyDB Directory path>/build_unix/.libs"

For ex:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/home/bompada/db-4.2.52.NC/build_unix/.libs"

Hope this helps you too..

cheers

This LD PATH saved me from the mismatch too.but problem is when i run make i get a error (tls) and ends. i have tried reinstalling openssl too.

wht do i do .

The make also ran complete once i added in the CPPFLAGS & LDFLAGS /usr/local/include & /usr/local/bin

but when i did make test following are the errors

I have installed openssl and cyrus sasl


I been trying to get ldap working but some how running into one ditch after another neeed help.

Most probably the test fails because you compile against the Berkeley DB specified by your configure argument, but the test runs with another Berkeley DB which is somewhere in the default path (/usr/lib, whatever). You still have an incompatible BDB somewhere which gets loaded first.

Try to run the test with the same LD_LIBRARY_PATH again, and you should be fine.

Alternatively: use the expected default location for the dbd. (I know this is not always an option.)

Hi,

I'm having the same problem and it's driving me nuts. Have you figured out the solution for it.
After i do the make test and it fails, i try to start the server by su root -c /usr/local/libexec/slapd but it fails and i get can't find libdb-4.3.so.
I appreciate any help on that

Hi,

Here's what worked for me:

- installed berkeley db (Vers. 4.2.52 with patches). Files show up in /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2 (BTW: Suse Linux 9.2).

- before running the openldap configure script, set the environment variables as follows:

$ export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2/include"
$ export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2/lib"
$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/data/install/berkeleydb/db-4.2.52.NC/build_unix/.libs

- followed the installation instructions for openldap to the letter:
$ cd /data/install/openldap/openldap-2.2.23 (my installation directory)
$ ./configure
$ make depend
$ make
$ make test (tests run fine)
$ su
# make install

- before starting slapd, I made a symbolic link to the shared library:
# cd /usr/local/lib
# ln -s /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2/lib/libdb-4.2.so
# ldconfig

- now, I could start slapd:
# /usr/local/openldap-2.2.23/libexec/slapd


Hope that helps.

regards
Daniel

Worked on RH9

Hi

Thanx for this find out. Only thing extra I had to do before running "make" was to run ldconfig. Then running make test and make install makes openldap work with Berkeley-4.3 as well, without any problems.

With Regards

Thanks for that, it worked on fedora core 2 too.

hey,,,, this is a great solution... and under debian sarge 3.1.... ROX..!!! work wonderfull

saludos desde CHILE...!!!!!

this is what worked for me. it turns out that gcc installed in /usr/sfw/bin/gcc was either broken or just broke enough to let the build fail. so,i went out to my favorite sunfreeware.com mirror (sunfreeware.mirrors.tds.net/indexsparc10.html) and grabbed gcc342 and installed it( in all 8 of my solars 10 zones too).

export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2/include"
export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2/lib"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2/lib/"
./configure --prefix=/opt/openldap-2.3.31 --enable-crypt --with-wrappers --with-tls --enable-crypt --enable-syslog --enable-ppolicy


keep in mind that you will need to add the openssl paths to LDFLAGS, CPPFLAGS and LD_LIBRARY_PATH if you desire ssl support. the configure script seemed to detect and use the native solaris 10 SASL and kerberos libs without any intervention from me.

all was fine as frogs hair after that. make depend, make, make test all worked wonderfully. hope this assists someone in their battles.

on a side note, i was able to reproduce this behavior in all of my zones as well.

Hi,

It didn't work for me on RHAS4.

I want to compile openldap 3.33.4 with the option multimaster. I replaced export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2/include" by export CPPFLAGS="-DSLAPD_MULTIMASTER -I/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2/include" but the make test command failed :

Any idea?
