compiling error on aix 5.1

[globe]

Hi @all,

i tried to compile the zabbix 1.1.4 agent for aix 5.1 but there's always a strange error, mybe one of you can help me

make[1]: Entering directory `/tmp/zabbix-1.1.4/src/zabbix_agent'
gcc  -static -g -O2   -o zabbix_agent  zabbix_agent.o ../libs/zbxsysinfo/libzbxsysinfo.a ../libs/zbxsysinfo/aix/libzbxsysinfo2.a ../libs/zbxlog/libzbxlog.a ../libs/zbxcrypto/libzbxcrypto.a ../libs/zbxnet/libzbxnet.a ../libs/zbxconf/libzbxconf.a ../libs/zbxcommon/libzbxcommon.a  -lnsl
collect2: ../libs/zbxsysinfo/libzbxsysinfo.a: not a COFF file
make[1]: *** [zabbix_agent] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/zabbix-1.1.4/src/zabbix_agent'
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

in check dep. there is this error but i think it's normal due to missing proc info

checking net/if.h presence... yes
configure: WARNING: net/if.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure: WARNING: net/if.h:     check for missing prerequisite headers?
configure: WARNING: net/if.h: see the Autoconf documentation
configure: WARNING: net/if.h:     section "Present But Cannot Be Compiled"
configure: WARNING: net/if.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result

configure: WARNING:     ## ------------------------------------------ ##
configure: WARNING:     ## Report this to the AC_PACKAGE_NAME lists.  ##

Thanks in advance for help,

Cheers Globe

P.S.:
Has someone precompiled agents for aix 5.1-4 and can provide them to the downloadsection?

i've compiled zabbix 1.1.4 on AIX 5.2.

To make it work, you need to use xlc as the compiler.
So, just before running the configure script, issue the 'export CC=xlc' command.

AIX precompiled Agents (Still available?)

Would anyone be so kind as to provide another link or access to an AIX 5.1 precompiled agent?

I'm having the same error when trying to compile on the server as what started this thread.
