Sendmail Compilation Error

[jbruns]

Hello-
I have been struggling with this issue for several days now, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I am running RedHat
Linux 9 and attempting to compile sendmail-8.12.9 with cyrus-sasl-2.1.15
support. I have the BerkelyDB version 4.1 installed.

When issuing the command 'sh Build' or 'sh Build -c' I returned the
following errors:

Attempting to correct this, I issue the command
'sh Build -I/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.1/include -I/usr/include/sasl

I have attempted to recomplile db with posixmutexes enable without luck.
Any suggestions or support would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much in

For other users who may have the same problem, how did you solve it?

Hi jbruns,

May I know how you solve it? I have the same problem in compiling sasl + sendmail in FreeBSD 4.8.
Please advice.

Thank you.
