gearmand 0.22 no longer recognises --libdrizzle-mysql or --libdrizzle_user arguments

[Dave Webb]

I was trying out the gearmand 0.22, but it failed to start when I used the following commandline (which works on our current version - 0.16):

/opt/gearman/sbin/gearmand \
        --daemon \
        --port=14730 \
        --user=gearmand \
        --log-file=/tmp/new_gearmand_log \
        --queue-type=libdrizzle \
        --libdrizzle-mysql \
        --libdrizzle_user=gearman \
        --libdrizzle-db=gearman_db \
        --libdrizzle-table=gearman_queue -vvvvvv

This failed with the error: "unknown option libdrizzle-mysql".
I removed that argument, and got the error: "unknown option libdrizzle_user".
The same thing happened for --libdrizzle-db and --libdrizzle-table

Has this method of specifying the persistance DB type and location changed? The docs at http://gearman.org/index.php?id=manual:job_server#persistent_queues still mention the previous method (though 0.22 is pretty new).

I think gearmand was built in the standard ./configure && make && make test && make install fashion.

After further investigation, I found that ./configure isn't picking up the libdrizzle install now.

Running it like the following worked:

libdrizzle_CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include" libdrizzle_LIBS="-L/usr/local/lib -ldrizzle" ./configure

This isn't a bug, just me not realising that this new version of gearmand needed different compile flags.

Sorry about that, let me put a note in the docs about it.

For the most part I am trying to use pkgconfig where available.

I got the correct values when running pkg-config directly, so perhaps that process isn't running correctly within ./configure

# pkg-config libdrizzle --libs
-L/usr/local/lib -ldrizzle

# pkg-config libdrizzle --cflags
-I/usr/local/include

OK, looking at the configure logs when I'm not passing _CFLAGS or _LIBS, I can see why it's failing. This host has libdrizzle 0.8 installed, and the check is for 1.0.

configure:20150: checking for libdrizzle
configure:20158: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors " libdrizzle-1.0 >= 2011.03.13 "
Package libdrizzle-1.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libdrizzle-1.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'libdrizzle-1.0' found

As far as I can tell, gearmand is working fine with libdrizzle 0.8, though I'll update to 1.0 and recompile. Thanks for your patience.

Did anyone manage to install LIBDRIZZLE 1.0 ? I cannot seem to find the sources to compile it. Thanks

I managed to get this all going, and wrote down the steps on the question at https://answers.launchpad.net/gearmand/+question/162914

This involved installing drizzle7-devel and libdrizzle7-devel from RPM, then passing flags to ./configure.

[Guo Chow (guo)]

This problem occurs on ubuntu server 12.04 amd64, where gearmand was installed using apt-get. It seems that the dependency on package libdrizzle-dev is not took into account as well.

[Clint Byrum (clint-fewbar)]

In current versions, libdrizzle is not included, but libmysqlclient functionality is. As such, I think this might be irrelevant.
