[Pdns-users] Problem getting gmysql backend working on RHEL 3

[Ian Neubert]

Hello all,

I'm trying to get PowerDNS to work with the gmysql backend on a Red Hat 
Enterprise Linux 3 clone (CentOS).

Is there a dependency that I'm missing? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

After installing the pdns-static-2.9.17 rpm from the website and setting my 
config file to start the gmysql backend, I get the following crash and error:
