Curses library not found - mysql

I'm trying to build 5.6.4-labs-innodb-memcached, but having this issue:
# cmake ./
-- MySQL 5.6.4-labs-innodb-memcached
-- Could NOT find Curses (missing: CURSES_LIBRARY CURSES_INCLUDE_PATH)
CMake Error at cmake/readline.cmake:83 (MESSAGE):
Curses library not found. Please install appropriate package,
remove CMakeCache.txt and rerun cmake.On Debian/Ubuntu, package name is libncurses5- dev, on Redhat and derivates it is ncurses-devel.
Call Stack (most recent call first):

libncurses5-dev is installed and CURSES_USE_NCURSES=true is set, but it doesn't help.
Any ideas?
I have already compiled this package, but it was on the other machine...

The error may be from cache file.
Delete CMakeCache.txt, then try again.

I do not know why is it failing, but you can use error message "missing ..." and set what is missing manually. I.e
cmake -DCURSES_LIBRARY=/usr/lib/libncurses.so -DCURSES_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/include .
should fix it.

Perhaps you need additional ncurses files.
sudo yum install ncurses-devel
Then delete CMakeCache.txt
Try again to run CMake. This worked for me.

sudo aptitude install libncurses-dev in Debian.

For some reason, CMake can't find includes and libraries. Help it by running cmake -D CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/path/to/curses/prefix .

I had the same problem, Deleting the cache file worked for me.

This one works for me
locate libncurses.so
cmake -DCURSES_LIBRARY=/PATH OF THE LOCATE RESULT CURSES_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/include

i had the same bug, but I after all I realized that it happens in the last version of php. Example: I am now using PHP 7.4 but when I switched to PHP 7.3.12 the bug was solved! So I could dare saying that for that specific bug the first thing to check is the version of PHP you're using whether is it stable of not..
Uninstall and reinstall Composer. Note that when installing, set php version 7.0. * To environment variables. So your problem will be solved

CUDA 7.0 Error while compiling samples

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.

I think OSX-gcc-installer broke some things and I'm not sure what to do

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:

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!

Installation error for DBD::MySQL on OSX v10.6.6

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.

Writing Makefile for DBD::mysql
Everything seemed to be going fine, until I tried to run make test :
t/00base....................NOK 2/6# Tried to use 'DBD::mysql'.

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

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).
