1.4.3 and 1.5 (4931) will not build

[bimonitor]

This is a recurring theme. Both v1.4.3 and 1.5 (4870 & 4931) on OSX 10.4.10

operations.c: In function 'add_discovered_host':
operations.c:464: error: 'MAXDNAME' undeclared (first use in this function)

operations.c:464: error: for each function it appears in.)

I could declare MAXDNAME as a char, but that could just cause more problems. Any suggestions?

still will not build

I get this when I disable the guts of auto_discover

Please replace it with MAX_STRING_LEN for now. It will be fixed.

still no build (4973)

I am sure this is a common problem since I get it with every developer build. When I do the make, I get:
-----
/usr/bin/ld: Undefined symbols:
_res_9_init
_res_9_query
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[3]: *** [zabbix_server] Error 1
make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

This is after a straight "./configre --enable-server --with-mysql".

solution

I had the same problems building on 10.5.1, and fixed them as follows:

in /zabbix-1.4.5/include/ :
in common.h add the following line
#define MAXDNAME 2048
after #define ZABBIX_COMMON_H

in sysinc.h
replace
#include <resolv.h>
with
#include <resolv8_compat.h>

YMMV, but this worked for me.

That's all I have to say about that.
