unable to load database plugin library, halting!

[jeremyr]

I am trying to install TS3 on a Fedora 11 server and I get this error message when I try to start it: "unable to load database plugin library, halting!"

teamspeak3-server_linux-x86]# ./ts3server_linux_x86 dbplugin=ts3db_mysql dbsqlcreatepath=create_mysql/

Can anyone tell if I have overlooked something? Thanks!

I have the same problem but I work with CentOS.

Any idea?..

That libraries depends ts3 ?

Hi

I also ran into this issue in my Ubuntu Karmic box. I googled and i found this:
http://forum.teamspeak.com/showthread.php?t=46762

All i did was install the missing library (libmysqlclient.so.15) and then it loaded without any issues.

Regards

I create a simbolic link to libmysqlclient.so.15 into root directory of ts3. but doesn't work.

/usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.15

ln -s libmysqlclient.so.15 /home/ts3/libmysqlclient.so.15

¿?

I am reviewing libraries one by one.

[Jonybat]

I wouldn't say that creating a link would solve the issue. The library has to be properly installed so the mysql can recognize it.

Run the following command and post the result here:

ldd libts3db_mysql.so

Hi

I'll try that later today and see if it works.

I ended up running sqlite instead and it started right up, I'd prefer to use MySQL.

Thanks!

using FC11 as well, I had to install additional client libraries for mysql (being that the mysql that FC11 has by default is too new for the library that TS3 is built against).

if you do the

ldd libts3db_mysql.so

and the output has a line like

libmysqlclient.so.15 => not found

instead of something like

libmysqlclient.so.15 => /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.15

you will also need to install the additional mysql client libraries. If you have i585 this is the correct rpm to install, if however you are x86_64, this is the one you want to install.

Hello,

I have the same problem being passed to the Beta 16 ....

ts3server.ini:

dbplugin = ts3db_mysql
dbpluginparameter = ts3db_mysql.ini
dbsqlpath = sql /

logquerycommands = 1

ts3db_mysql.ini:

[config]
host = localhost
port = 3306

I run teamspeak:

./ts3server_linux_x86-inifile ts3server.ini

The result:

but by testing as follows:
./ts3server_linux_x86 dbplugin = ts3db_mysql dbsqlcreatepath = create_mysql /

it works then my problem is solved :P

[Cetheus]

I have had the same problem.
I'm running debian linux with pd-admin. in this case the mysql files are not located at the standard path.
I created a system link the following way:

 ln -s /usr/local/pd-admin2/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.15 /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.15

now the Teamspeak Server was able to load the file but not to connect...
so lets move on to the next error

Hi, i have problem for start TS3 server on FreeBSD 9.0 x64

error :

i cant find libmysqlclient.so.15 for x64 BSD

[Wikibear]

Would be great of a solution about this, 'cause i have the same problem under opensuse 11.4

libmysqlclient15 is not avail only 16.

[CSchmidt]

Here you can find a solution for Debian Squeez

[Wikibear]

Don't like this, 'cause old package on new system can make big trouble.

[SilentStorm]

The only choice you have is to somewhere get a copy of libmysqlclient.so.15 so it can and will be used by ts3, or to use another Database System (eg. sqlite). Unfortunately there is no other option at the moment. Don't like it either but it is how it is.

[Wikibear]

Tryed but that wont work. Mybe different MYSQL Versions are running. Lib 15 runs with 5.0 and lib 16 with 5.1. I'm not the freak but it seems that this different version wont work together under linux openSuse 11.4 There is no lib 15 version i tryed with 11.1 and i get a socket error. Thats all so bad. Why there no reaktions from a developer of the ts3 server.
