Using Oracle Database

[vardhasu]

Hi All

I had downloaded and installed zabbix-server and zabbix-server-mysql.. packages and had configured to use MySQL on the localhost.

Now I would like to point zabbix-server to an Oracle database. I made the changes to DBHost etc in zabbix-server.conf to point to the oracle node and tried to restart server and I keep getting
"62677:20160114:110835.752 [Z3001] connection to database 'zabbix' failed: [2013] Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 0 "
messages.

So how do I have Zabbix use Oracle server instead of MySQL from binaries downloaded. Please note that I am not compling the zabbix src.

Any help/pointer will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks and Regards

Vardhan

Binaries for MySQL can not connect to Oracle.
Please compile from the source for Oracle.

After you install the library for Oracle, expand the Zabbix sources require execution of configure and make.
Please set the environment variable at run time.

Hi Astushi

Thanks much for clearing my doubt. Also wanted to check if there is a particular version of GCC required to compile.

Thanks and Regards
