Agent getting Segmentation Fault - Won't Start

[avmnd.com]

I trying to start an agent on a linux machine:

2.6.9-5.ELsmp ([email protected]) (gcc version 3.4.3 20041212 (Red Hat 3.4.3-9.EL4))

I've created a zabbix user, made zabbix_agent executable (755) and made zabbix the owner and group owner.

As soon as i type the command zabbix_agent I get "Segmentation fault". Nothing shows up in the message log.

I've built the agent on a centos 4.3 machine (32 bit) and did the exact same procedure to move it to a centos 4.3 (64 bit) machine and it works just fine.

Any ideas? I am very limited to what I can do to the RedHat machine as it is a production webserver running a server appliance that gets pretty touchy if there are configurations out of synch.....

RedHat zabbix agent not starting....still

Is there anyone out there with any suggestions.... I am using the same zabbix server to monitor 1 other linux box and 2 windows using agents with no issues.

Is there another approach i can take not using an agent on the redhad box, and still use agents on the other?

Is SNMP enabled on that server?

If so, you could use SNMP to monitor the server.

I can mix and match snmp on some servers and agents on others?

Yes you can mix and match SNMP and agents... it's not a problem. I"m doing that with a handful of Cisco Switches (SNMP) and then a dozen or so Windows servers using the Agent.
