Hello All,
I am attempting to reconfigure a zabbix installation on ubuntu 20.10. using zabbix 5.4. i've managed to get it monitoring a windows host after resolving some none zaabix issues and installing an agent on the host to be monitored. i now need to configure the installation to monitor a Vsphere host. its important to know that i am a new zabbix user, and i also did not set up the initial installation. just know it doesn't have the libxml2 and libcurl configurations. which is what im trying to resolve. looking at the documentation i beleive it should be possible to reconfigure the installation using the command ./configure, and then appending --with-libxml2 and --with-libcurl afterwards. but the ./configure isn't recognized no matter where i use it. the documentation says it needs to be run from the zabbix source directory but i have no idea where that is and i cannot find any documentation as to where it resides by default. i'm also afraid of trying to reinstall zabbix, as i might lose the all the database information we already have for it. any information on how/where to use the ./configure command would be appreciated, as well as information on the potential locations for the zabbix source directory folder.
