I tried to install ejabberd in my local Mac OS X machine, but while configuring sqlite using following command as mentioned in steps. I'm stuck at the following issue.
./configure --prefix=$HOME/my-ejabberd --enable-sqlite
Error received
checking for SQLite3 library >= 3.6.19... yes
cat: /include/sqlite3.h: No such file or directory
./configure: line 4172: test: !=: unary operator expected
configure: WARNING: Cannot find SQLITE_VERSION macro in sqlite3.h header to retrieve SQLite version!
configure: error: SQLite3 library >= 3.6.19 was not found
Steps I followed from - https://docs.ejabberd.im/developer/install-osx/
If you just want to install vanilla Ejabberd then you can simply do brew install ejabberd.
According to the issue, you can also try:
./configure --prefix=$HOME/my-ejabberd --enable-sqlite --with-sqlite3=/usr/local/opt/sqlite
P.S. I have filed the issue on Github Ejabberd.

I'm trying to install CUDA 7.0 on Ubuntu 14.04. I've followed the installation instructions as outlined here. Specifically, I've followed steps in section 3.6 and Chapter 6. While compiling the examples (Section 6.2.2.2) using make, I'm getting the following error:
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/cuda-7.0/samples/3_Imaging/cudaDecodeGL'
/usr/local/cuda-7.0/bin/nvcc -ccbin g++ -m64 -gencode arch=compute_20,
code=compute_20 -o cudaDecodeGL FrameQueue.o ImageGL.o VideoDecoder.o
VideoParser.o VideoSource.o cudaModuleMgr.o cudaProcessFrame.o
videoDecodeGL.o -L../../common/lib/linux/x86_64 -L/usr/lib/"nvidia-346"
-lGL -lGLU -lX11 -lXi -lXmu -lglut -lGLEW -lcuda -lcudart -lnvcuvid
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lnvcuvid
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [cudaDecodeGL] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/cuda-7.0/samples/3_Imaging/cudaDecodeGL'
make: *** [3_Imaging/cudaDecodeGL/Makefile.ph_build] Error 2
If you notice, there is -L/usr/lib/"nvidia-346". In my case, I have installed nvidia-349. What worked for me is to edit NVIDIA_CUDA-7.0_Samples/3_Imaging/cudaDecodeGL/findgllib.mk and change UBUNTU_PKG_NAME = "nvidia-346" to nvidia-349.
In order to properly install CUDA 7.0 on Ubuntu 14.04, you need a nvidia driver version 346 or higher.
If you're using the .deb installation method, the nvidia graphics driver is installed automatically.
If you used the .run file installation method and chose not to install the nvidia driver, you can manually install the driver afterwards through the package manager:
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa && sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nvidia-346 nvidia-346-dev nvidia-346-uvm libcuda1-346 nvidia-libopencl1-346 nvidia-icd-346
In my case, I installed nvidia-352 afterwards due to a bug in nvidia-346 and I stumbled upon the same error.
andoum's approach of manually changing the hard-coded UBUNTU_PKG_NAME = "nvidia-346" to UBUNTU_PKG_NAME = "nvidia-352" in NVIDIA_CUDA-7.0_Samples/3_Imaging/cudaDecodeGL/findgllib.mk worked fine for me.
I met the same issue and solution is that put path of nvidia into system path:
sudo gedit /etc/environment
add these path into environment
LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/your_nvidia_edition:$LIBRARY_PATH
In fact I have encountered this problem when I made a make. I installed Cuda 8.0 under my Ubuntu 16.04. This problem had been confusing me for several weeks and I was almost tending to reinstall ubuntu for that after reviewing many suggestions via google, but finally I addressed it myself recently.
First of all, you should replace all the UBUNTU_PKG_NAME= ##nvidia-3xx## to the one of your actually installed nvidia driver version as recommended above. Then you will probably get compiling error after you do a new make. In my case, I have the link errors like
/usr/bin/ld: warning: libGLX.so.0, needed by /usr/lib/nvidia-
375/libGL.so, not found (try using -rpath or -rpath-link)
/usr/bin/ld: warning: libGLdispatch.so.0, needed by /usr/lib/nvidia-
375/libGL.so, not found (try using -rpath or -rpath-link)
....
or whatever contains missing link errors. Do locate the files you miss like
$ locate libGLX.so.
/usr/lib/nvidia-375/libGLX.so.0
/usr/lib32/nvidia-375/libGLX.so.0
$ locate libGLdispatch.so.0
/usr/lib/nvidia-375/libGLdispatch.so.0
/usr/lib32/nvidia-375/libGLdispatch.so.0
The error above is probably caused the compiling files cannot find in the default cuda libraries as you set, so you just need to copy the missing files to /usr/lib/nvidia-3xx/ (the actual path in your case) and this should work(it works in my case), if it doesn't maybe you could try to link the new add files to the one that need using a
$ sudo ln -s (requested file) (requesting file).
Hope this will help.
Long story short is I foolishly installed OSX-gcc-installer about a month ago and at first it prevented me, I believe, from installing Ruby gems on my machine. With the help of someone I did get this one issue fixed. Going through other the other posts on this website I was not able to find the solution that I'm looking for, so I decided to post here.
When I run brew doctor I get the following:
albys-mbp:folder alby$ brew doctor

I am mostly new to programming and am not sure where to begin to solve this issue. I was able to backup my HD to an external HD, but this is after installing the gcc-installer which overwrote my Command Line Tools. So even if I were to do a reinstall, would that even work? I've never had to reinstall my OS X before; would I be able to pick and choose files from the external HD or is it all restored?
Also, I have OS X 10.9.
Thanks!
I use OSX 10.6.8 and MySQL from XAMPP.

This is because of a config issue on Mac OS X Lion (10.7): lib/libmysqlclient.18.dylib (mysql 5.5 and above).
Step 1:
Make sure you set the path in ~/.profile
export ARCHFLAGS=-arch x86_64
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/mysql/lib:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
Step 2:
I am using rvm so, I used the following command:
rvmsudo ARCHFLAGS="-arch x86_64" gem install mysql2 -- --with-mysql-config=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config --with-opt-lib=/usr/local/mysql/lib
which has solved the issues with rails application on Mac lion and mysql x86_64.
I futzed around with this for a ton of time including setting the DVLD library path and copying the library into /usr/lib.
sudo cp /usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.18.dylib /usr/lib
Heck, anything to get it working. Finally I tried clearing the default for 64 vs 32 bit and it worked!
defaults delete com.apple.versioner.perl
Not sure if my perl is 64 or 32 bit, but my db is 64 bit and just using the default default seems to work better ;-)
I'm attempting to get DBD::MySQL working on Snow Leopard (v10.6.6). The default version of Perl that comes with the OS is v5.10.0. Since I've read that's 64-bit, I went ahead and downloaded and installed a 64-bit version of MySQL (mysql-5.5.8-osx10.6-x86_64).
Installing and setting up MySQL went smoothly, here's my config and version number for reference.
I used CPAN to download DBI and the DBD::MySQL drivers. I then:

It's failing because it can't seem to find the mysql.bundle for DBD. Has anyone come across this problem? Or can point me in the right direction on what to try next? I need DBI/DBD::MySQL for my new job and I'm scrambling to find a solution.
Many thanks in advance.
I got around the "Library not loaded: libmysqlclient.16.dylib" problem by placing a symbolic link in /usr/lib/" to /usr/local/mysql-5.5.8-osx10.6-x86_64/lib/libmysqlclient.16.dylib
I worked around the same or a similar issue. Somehow I could build and test DBD::mysql with cpan but when I tried to use it in a script it said things like
dyld: lazy symbol binding failed: Symbol not found: _mysql_init
Referenced from: /Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.bundle
Expected in: flat namespace
Apparently, it's a 64-bit vs 32-bit issue.
Installing the fink dbd-mysql-pm5100 package made it work though it took kind of a long time. I also removed the cpan-installed version:
sudo rm -rf /Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level/auto/DBD/mysql
sudo rm -rf /Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level/DBD/mysql
sudo rm -rf /Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level/DBD/mysql.pm
also include in .profile
export VERSIONER_PERL_PREFER_32_BIT=yes;
Besides creating the link the executions of the program with DBI::mysql generated an error, thus including this variable on the environment make it works
I know this is an old post. But I suppose the best solution would be to add the library directory to the DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH env variable. (reason here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/3172515/119958 )
There is no ldconfig in mac, so just add the path to this env var and rerun the install process for DBD::mysql

Donato's solution works for install, but the var has to be present at runtime as well or I get the same error. The following fixes this at runtime for shell and _www user:
# For command line use, add following line to ~/.bash_profile:
export DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/mysql/lib/:$DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH
# If Apache needs it, add following line to /etc/apache2/httpd.conf:
# On Lion Server, I put it after <IfDefine MACOSXSERVER>, but shouldn't matter
SetEnv DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/local/mysql/lib/:$DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH
It's somewhat of an aside, but I strongly recommend setting up a separate perl on the machine -- either by fink / macports, or from source -- and leaving the Mac's system perl (and its libraries) alone.
Once I did this on my own Mac, I had very few troubles installing modules thereafter, and I didn't have to worry about accidentally blowing a hole in my OS by breaking the perl that the system uses.
If it were my Mac, I'd install a new perl from source (the Perl source distribution is smart enough to install itself see that it's on a Mac and install itself safely into /usr/local/bin) and the proceed from thee to install DBD::Mysql (and the other modules you require).

I'm using the default install of ruby 1.8.6.
I'm using a 64-bit version of MySQL 5.0.77. mysqld is running and I can use the mysql shell, so I suspect my issue is with mysql.gem, though I'm by no means certain.
Can anyone offer any advice?
Ok. So the solution turned out to be I needed to be runing the 32-bit version of MySQL 5.0.77 in order for mysql.gem to work.
