14.5.2 Installing BDB

If you have downloaded a binary version of MySQL that includes support for BerkeleyDB, simply follow the instructions for installing a binary version of MySQL. See section 2.2.6 Installing MySQL on Other Unix-like Systems. See section mysqld-max.

To compile MySQL with Berkeley DB support, download MySQL Version 3.23.34 or newer and configure MySQL with the --with-berkeley-db option. See section 2.3 MySQL Installation Using a Source Distribution.

 
cd /path/to/source/of/mysql-3.23.34
./configure --with-berkeley-db

Please refer to the manual provided with the BDB distribution for more updated information.

Even though Berkeley DB is in itself very tested and reliable, the MySQL interface is still considered gamma quality. We are actively improving and optimizing it to make it stable very soon.
