configure and make errors(help needed)

[Jayshankar]

Hi,

I merged source code changes of 3.4.1 to 3.2 to make 3.2 upgraded to 3.4.1, Then i run
1>./configure --enable-server --enable-agent --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config --enable-ipv6 --with-net-snmp --with-libcurl --with-libxml2

The above command goes through fine.

2>make fails with error
./configure: line 10288: syntax error near unexpected token `no'
./configure: line 10288: ` LIBEVENT_CHECK_CONFIG(no)'

Thanks,
Jayshankar

Please try install libevent libraries for development.
That package name are libevent and libevent-devel on RHEL.

I tried it with a standard package configuration Zabbix 3.4.2 on fc25.

Preparing necessary packages:
Some packages for building rpm is also included.

# dnf groupinstall "Development Tools"
# dnf install rpm-build
# dnf install  OpenIPMI-devel curl-devel gnutls-devel iksemel-devel java-devel libevent-devel libssh2-devel libxml2-devel mysql-devel net-snmp-devel openldap-devel pcre-devel postgresql-devel sqlite-devel unixODBC-devel

Run configure:

$ ./configure --enable-server --enable-agent --with-mysql --enable-ipv6 --with-net-snmp --with-libcurl --with-libxml2

No error was output.

configure and make errors(help needed)

I have merged 3.4.1 changes to 3.2 source code tree. I am still getting errors in
./configure.


make fails with error
./configure: line 10288: syntax error near unexpected token `no'
./configure: line 10288: ` LIBEVENT_CHECK_CONFIG(no)'

What to do next.

[Atsushi]

I do not know what you merged and what you did.
The merged content may be insufficient.

Please check again whether merge is completed including not only C source but also configure related files.

[jan.garaj]

Why did you merge 3.4 branch? I guess it's safer to checkout/export 3.4 branch unless you have your own Zabbix code customization.

Also, try to check configure log for more details.

i have created a svn tree for 3.2 zabbix source code. I have to check in 3.4 source code into the same tree. While merging i get these problems. I am not much familiar with configure script.

Can i get external help who can look into this problem

[Atsushi]

If you checked out from official Subversion, I think that you need to execute the following command first.

$ ./bootstrap.sh

Wiki:

http://www.zabbix.org/wiki/Compilation_instructions

Also, it should have been installed, please check whether the pkgconfig package is installed.

Its not the official subversion. Its local svn tree. The source code version is 3.2.1. It needs to be upgraded to 3.4.1. I need to show the scripts to one who maintains the configure script.

You can download the tar ball containing the required files from www.zabbix.com.

3.4.1 is old and has bugs, I recommend using 3.4.2.
