[Pdns-users] Powerdns with OpenDBC compileproblem - "/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -l-lz"

[Robert Dunkley]

Hi,

I am trying to install PowerDNS with OpenDBX and FreeTDS for use with
MsSQL. I have compiled and installed FreeTDS and OpenDBX (With
./configure --with-backends="mssql") and configure with the "opendbx"
options is successful. 

However when I try to do make the following error occurs:
g++ -shared -nostdlib
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/../../../../lib64/crti.o
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/crtbeginS.o  .libs/odbxbackend.o

Zlib and Zlib-devel is installed and the OS is Centos 5.3. It probably
is a missing requirement but I cannot seem to work out what is missing.
Does anyone have any ideas on what the problem might be?


Thanks,

Rob
