Compilation problem: Zbx-2.1.8 FreeBSD-7.0 Release

[Sowltech]

Hi everyone.
I have a problem with installing from source. ZBX Version 2.1.8. I tried 2.1.7 but there is the same problem.

Configure option --with-libxml2 makes that problem.

When I run make install, I get the following error:
checks_simple_vmware.c:235: error: invalid operands to binary -

# pkg_info | grep xml
libxml2-2.7.7 XML parser library for GNOME

also tried with libxml2-2.8.0_2

FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE
I think in the latest release will be the same problem.

Somebody knows what to do with it?

p.s. Sorry for my english, it is not perfect.

Hi & welcome to the Zabbix forums!

Make sure that you have the libxml2 development (libxml2-devel) package installed, otherwise compilation will fail.

To install it, try running: sudo yum install libxml2-devel
and then try to compile it again.

If you don't have the above package installed (libxml2-devel), then I would've guessed that the configure process would've stopped you already, and not the compilation process.
So there may be something else missing/wrong still...

If you are interested, I solved the problem.
For libxml2 need THREAD_ALLOC option.
On FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE operating system.

In the FreeBSD 7.0-RELESE is a problem with the build libxml2 with this option.
I will try to fix it.

make distclean

libxml2 port was builded with THREAD_ALLOC Per-thread memory (DEVELOPERS ONLY!) and without, same error.
