Hello

I am trying to build GDAL with GEOS support on RHEL 6 (64-bit) and am getting nowhere fast!

I've been using the OGR api from gdal-1.11.1 for over a year with excellent results and now need to use the geometry methods that are only available with the inclusion of GEOS (else the message ERROR 6: GEOS support not enabled").

I've built geos-3.1.0 and the set the GDAL configure option "--with-geos" to point to "geos-config". Initially this did not work as gdal configure was attempting to execute "geos-config" which did not have execute permission (doing a chmod 777 on "geos-config" resolved this).

GDAL builds fine and appears to partially recognize GEOS availability but cannot confirm "GEOSversion" in geos_c. The following two lines are output from gdal configure;

        checking for GEOS version >= 3.1.0... yes
        checking for GEOSversion in -lgeos_c... no

At this point it looked like a search issue so I've updated the PATH and LIBRARY_PATH env vars to point to the geos "capri" directory containing "libgeos_c.la". Still no luck. Have tried copying libgeos_c.la to the gdal folder and /usr/local/lib but still no luck.

Going through the list I see where others have run across similar but not the same problem.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to resolve this?

Kelly,

I've never come across problems like this with GEOS and GDAL. If GEOS is in usual place (/usr/local/lib for example) GDAL configure picks it up by default.

It sounds a bit like you did not install GEOS. Did you issue "make install" after building GEOS?

Ari


Thanks,

Kelly
