Mismatch ABI

[Praving5]

Hi Guys,
I am trying to compile unixODBC and get below errors in config.log file...

I am using IA-64 machine. Can anyone help me please? I am stuck from a weeek...

Thanks and regards,

I guess you are trying to link 64-bit object with 32-bit shared
library. If so, you should have 64-bit shared libraries.
Otherwise, you should remove +DD64 from your CFLAGS to generate
32-bit binaries.

Could you show us the configure script line when you invoke it ?

Thank you,

[Praving5]

hi Shinji,
You are correct... There seems to be some issue with 32/64 bit.

How do i go about it?

[Dennis Handly]

These all look like configure errors. You are not suppose to look at them.

Where is your real error?

>There seems to be some issue with 32/64 bit.

Why do you think that?
You should immediately install the latest linker patch, where the error message has been separated into to. You probably have the "Can't find library" error?

Otherwise what does file(1) show for your objects? What -L have you given the linker? Are you using the same +DD for both compiling and linking?

[Praving5]

These errors are literally killing me.

I am not sure what is to be done.

[Praving5]

please help. How to use -L option for linking and compiling. I have no clue at all.

[Andre-Marcel Hellmund]

Hey Pravin,

you need to record the output of make which will then show you the compiler and linker options (e.g. -L and +DD64).

To record the output of make, do the following:

make > make.log 2>&1 (for bash)
make >& make.log (for csh)

You could then probably attach the make.log file to one of your next messages (together with the config.log file) ...

Why? The configure step is suppose to get errors. This checks the existence of various libs and features. There are the errors you get when it start compiling unixODBC?

>where to look for all below

If you had the latest linker patch, it would tell you it couldn't find the shlib, not that it was the wrong ABI.

[Dennis Handly]

Here is an example of the new wrong ABI message:
ld: Mismatched ABI for -lclntsh, found /u01/dbclient/oracle/product/11.1.0/client_1/lib//libclntsh.so

[Andre-Marcel Hellmund]

If you do not really know how to analyze the configure and make output, why don't you just post the output, so that we could check what is something wrong with your configuration/build process? Beside installing the new linker patch, this would probably accelerate finding your errors ...
