complaining about libjpeg.a

[aot2002]

I have tried to install this on fedora core 3 system?
i have all g and c++ compilers that i know of on here, but it keeps insisting that its not installed.
Is there a better way to verify that these things are installed on fedora?

libjpeg.a is nothing to do with gcc or g++ but is a separate library that you must install as well, either from source or from an rpm. Try doing a 'yum install libjpeg' or a 'yum install libjpeg-devel' as I don't know if the former includes the required header files as well.

try locating libjpeg.a 'locate libjpeg.a'
and look out for the path..
may be path used by ZM configuration is different(eg .usr/lib instead of /lib)

make sure you have libjpeg-devel rpm installed:
-rpm -q libjpeg-devel

then, try this instead:
./configure --with-mysql=/usr --with-ffmpeg --with-webdir=/var/www/html --with-cgidir=/var/www/cgi-bin

although libjpeg-devel needs to be installed and it is the prerequiste for ZM installation...

--with-ffmpeg will search for additional libraries libavcodec and lib avformat and ffmpeg has different functionality ...

libjpeg will always be needed
libjpeg comes default with the linux installationat least in Fedora versions...
there can be problem with the path if libjpeg-devel is installed ..
