Binary builds for AIX

Binary builds for AIX

am 09.09.2011 17:22:36 von Peter Gershkovich

I noticed that there is no binary builds for AIX any more.=20
What would be the best way to install a current version of MySQL (5.5) =
on AIX?
Specifically I am looking for instructions for AIX 6.1 and/or 7.1=20
Thanks,
Peter

It is some time since i used AIX but maybe this help.
So far i know has IBM moved to gnu-tools if not do it,
it will ease the pain. I assume that you have gcc etc running.
after downloading the latest version of mysql source.
1. unpack
2. ./configure
if it complains try to fix it
/* hope for the best */
3. make
if it complains try to fix it
4. make check
/* i do not remember the exact target but this runs the test
and should also be found with INSTALL
*/
5. make install
note that you still have to make sure that the db will start at boot

do not blame me if something fails, i have not used AIX since 4.1.

Alas, I mothballed my old RS/6000 AIX machine a few years ago. It was
getting quite old and only ran AIX 4.3

I had toyed with the idea of getting a more modern machine from ebay
but to be honest, I haven't had much time recently.
