Trouble building Zabbix 1.8.9 with Postgresql

[elvar]

Hello, I'm trying to build Zabbix 1.8.9 from source on Ubuntu Server 11.10 64bit with Postgresql 9.1. My configure completed successfully and below is my configure arguments...

./configure --host=x86_64-linux-gnu --build=x86_64-linux-gnu --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --enable-proxy --with-pgsql --enable-agent --with-net-snmp 

When I run make though I get into trouble. Below is what I see near the end. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Kind regards,
Elvar

I had trouble doing this last week too. I'm also installing Zabbix 1.8.9 on Ubuntu 11.10.

A patch has to be applied before building the Zabbix binaries. I've attached my patch to this post. It was derived from the debian/ubuntu patch for their zabbix server 1.8.5 package which fixed these bugs.

Ubuntu Bug
Debian Bug

I only had to make minor modifications for it to work with 1.8.9.

Here are my build instructions.

sudo apt-get install build-essential automake1.9 postgresql-server-dev-9.1 libsnmp-dev libcurl3-dev postgresql fping

tar xzvf zabbix-1.8.9.tar.gz
cd zabbix-1.8.9/

# copy the zabbix-1.8.9-ldap-linker-lp722300.txt here
patch -p1 < zabbix-1.8.9-ldap-linker-lp722300.txt

./configure --enable-server --with-pgsql --with-net-snmp --with-libcurl
sudo make install

Thanks for the reply! I ended up using mysql but on my next build I'll try out this patch.
