Dear Sirs. I'm in trouble these days because it seems to be impossible to deal with StarOffice 5.2 under FreeBSD and any MySQL server via ODBC. Obviously StarOffice assumes a Linux library libodbc.so which is not part of the distribution and it is nearly impossible to get aout dated stuff as RedHat 6.1 like the emulation/base distribution in FreeBSD (why so old?). I successfuly installed a mysqlclient-library and some libs for MyODBC, but I do not have the necessary unixODBC libraries. I found some new RPMs, but the obsolete stuff in FreeBSD's linux_base6.1 (rpm) reports that it can not install this major number of distribution (> 3). Well, that was what I expected because it was for RedHat 7 - but there aren't 6.1-libs. The alternative would be to compile the source - but this fails due some not found routines ins some libs. for that, I exec'ed into /compat/linux/bin/sh and set up the path to first find linux binaries and libraries. Has anybody experiences in doing that? Thanks, Oliver -- MfG O.
