can you post the contents of /etc/ld.so.conf here pls?

/etc/ld.so.conf  ' as follows

/usr/kerberos/lib
/usr/X11R6/lib
/usr/lib/mysql
/usr/lib/qt-3.1/lib
/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql
/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql
/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql
/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql
/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql


Have to blaze to work, will check in a hour or so thanks again!

i suspect that the system has got a corrupt

make

file which might required to be reinstalled

or try a

ldconfig -v
(the command would recreate most of the missing links and set right some of the critical stuff provided your ld.so.conf in /etc is properly setup). once done you should not get errors like these. but if you still get these errors try reinstalling "make"

yum remove make
yum install make
you can safely remove the /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql which are repeats and leave only one entry behind.  but please check to make sure that the directory is really there.

there would also be a directory /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ which would have some files and all the paths mentioned there should be available on the system. once having verified those, THEN ONLY issue the command

ldconfig -v

I know make is good because I compiled and made apache, php and mysql...

Get the following after running

**removed duplicate entrys of /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql

**there would also be a directory /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ which would have some files and all the paths mentioned there should be available on the system. once having verified those, THEN ONLY issue the command

dir is there nothing is in that dir empty dir

ldconfig -v
