MySQL Issues

[aewing]

I'm getting the following error when trying to use this package with Ubuntu 14.04 x64:

remote: vendor/hhvm/hhvm: error while loading shared libraries: libmysqlclient_r.so.16: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[Mihailoff]

Any news how to solve this?

[bountin]

+1 (and I don't even need MySQL)

[peterkinnaird]

+1 (also dont need mysql)

I think https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-php should be used instead of this buildpack.

[bountin]

Oh, I wasn't aware of that - I just moved and it works :)

Maybe @CHH or @ptarjan could put this information into the readme?

[JoelMarcey]

@bountin Or you can always send a pull request for the README too :)

[bountin]

@JoelMarcey What I can't tell is if there are plans to continue support for this build pack or to deprecate it in favor of the official one. Looking at the open issues and the last commit I think it is the latter one but I think it's rude for an outsider to suggest something like this in a pull request. But if it's okay with you I'll provide one.

@jwatzman Do you know whether or not we are deprecating the Heroku build pack?

[jwatzman]

Yeah I'm not sure what the status of this is -- I think this was a proof-of-concept that Heroku turned into something official? Not 100% sure. @ptarjan do you know?

[ptarjan]

Yes, exactly. You should use the hhvm support by heroku: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/php-support
