we're getting ready to try some mysql through c++. So we downloaded (source) mysql++ to /usr/local/ ran gunzip, then tar -xvf on the downloaded. cd in to the newly created directory. Pulled open the README file and it says run automake then autoconfig then ./configure, then make and make install So we run automake, get some errors can't find INSTALL, AUTHORS, etc in the directory. We went ahead and went through the other steps and it failed on make. Is there anyone with a link or some info that could help get over this hurdle? TIA!!

Have a look at this thread: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...threadid=98348
