Compiling problem alpha11 on Suse Enterprise 9

[RohrbaGe]

Hi,

I tried to compile on Suse 9 Enterprise.
Here some lines from the config.log

......
$ ./configure --with-mysql --enable-server --prefix=/usr/local/zabbix


.....

configure:2570: result: none needed
configure:2588: gcc -c -g -O2 conftest.c >&5
conftest.c:2: error: parse error before "me"
configure:2594: $? = 1
configure: failed program was:
| #ifndef __cplusplus
| choke me
| #endif
configure:2735: checking for style of include used by make
configure:2763: result: GNU
configure:2791: checking dependency style of gcc
configure:2881: result: gcc3
configure:2901: checking for main in -lsocket
configure:2925: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 conftest.c -lsocket >&5
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-suse-linux/3.3.3/../../../../i586-suse-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lsocket
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure:2931: $? = 1
configure: failed program was:
| /* confdefs.h. */
|
| #define PACKAGE_NAME ""
| #define PACKAGE_TARNAME ""
| #define PACKAGE_VERSION ""
| #define PACKAGE_STRING ""
| #define PACKAGE_BUGREPORT ""
| #define PACKAGE "ZABBIX"
| #define VERSION "1.1alpha11"
| /* end confdefs.h. */
|

The make does not bring an error message, it is just not creating the binarys.

I´m quite sure, that I have to install a library only, but I have no idea which.

Has anyone an idea?
The 1.0 version is running fine on the same machine. So there must
me used in the alpha version 11 another lib, I guess.

Greetings,

Right off the bat, it appears that you are missing the unix socket library. Look in /lib and /usr/lib for a file called libsocket*, if it does not exist, then you will need to disable it in configure.

Make install

make install
helped. Problem was between the ears.
