Do not build MySQL Router. It is a set of tools and libraries used for the InnoDB cluster. However without MySQL Shell it can't be operated. We don't pack the MySQL Shell, so donĀ“t build the router at all. I have this confirmed from the mail conversation with the MySQL side: "While technically possible, it's practically impossible to set up router without the MySQL Shell." --- mysql-8.0.13/CMakeLists.txt 2018-10-07 10:44:22.000000000 +0200 +++ mysql-8.0.13/CMakeLists.txt_patched 2018-10-23 03:10:01.490792624 +0200 @@ -1046,7 +1046,7 @@ CONFIGURE_FILE(${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/sql/s # depends on mysql_version.h to exist IF(NOT WITHOUT_SERVER) - ADD_SUBDIRECTORY(router) +# ADD_SUBDIRECTORY(router) ENDIF() GET_PROPERTY(CWD_DEFINITIONS DIRECTORY PROPERTY COMPILE_DEFINITIONS)
