Environment:Attachments:( 0) config.log
( 1) configtrunk.log
Description:My config.log shws that tds is not there, but it is there and working fine. I did follow the suggestion of a wise man who said this:
"You need to run 'make install' in the FreeTDS source directory, run 'ldconfig' as root, and then re-run ./configure within the asterisk source directory."
But strange enough still config.log shows no trace of freetds, while it compiles cdr_odbc which works on top of freetds. My config.log shows this

configure:28397: checking for tds_version in -ltds
configure:28432: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 conftest.c -ltds >&5
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.1.2/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -ltds
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
While this might not be an Asterisk bug per se, what can I do to force config to consider freetds installed?

It is definitely an Asterisk bug, because the Trunk version does find the fdreetds libraries, where the 1.4 version does not, in the same machine. I know that the trunk works because in make menuselect, cdr_tds is enabled. I am uploading the Trunk confog.log so you can see what is happenning.

It is definitely not an Asterisk bug because the Trunk version uses libsybdb, where the 1.4 version uses libtds.  The are completely different modules.

I am guessing that you have installed FreeTDS 0.82 which is not compatible with Asterisk 1.4 (because it does not install libtds).  If you want cdr_tds to work properly, you need to install version 0.64 of FreeTDS, available here:
