I can't compile check_mysql on solaris
If you are using GCC and your MySQL version was compiled using Sun's C compiler (or the other way round), then it is likely that the configure options will fail as configure will run mysql_config to get the appropriate CFLAGS.
There are various options:
- Disable check_mysql by running ./configure --without-mysql
- Allow ./configure to finish, but manually amend plugins/Makefile and remove any non-GCC flags in MYSQLCFLAGS
- Use Sun's C compiler to compile the plugins
- Use a GCC compiled version of MySQL
