Compile Problem

[James Wells]

No idea then man. I know it's not gonna help ya, but I will try to get a FC / CentOS system going this evening and see if I can work through it. I can't promise anything though.

[rushowr]

Thanks, I appreciate it.

Anyone else have a possible solution?

This is a CentOS 3 machine, MySQL 4.1.15, PHP5...


Thanks

If you move the existing -lmysqlclient from the middle of the arguments to gcc to the end instead, the compile and link works with no errors.

I can't understand why the Zabbix developers didn't catch this one sooner as gcc and ld will always load libraries from the end of the command-line *first* in order to satisfy dependencies for the source files specified at the beginning.

I am using the official MySQL 5.0.15 RPMs from http://www.mysql.com/ as CentOS and Fedora have yet to release their own.

AWESOME!!!. Thank you Terry. Don't know about anyone else, but I was unaware of this. Actually, this kind of makes sense considering one of the patches I submitted a while back had -lmysqlclient to the end of the linker line, but the patch just before mine had it at the front of the line and it failed.

Again, thank you very much.

Version 1 worked great, cept for an email problem I have had... now I have spent the last 5 hours browsing the forums, scratchin my head, pulling out my hair because I cannot get htis work... I am on RHE 3... please help.

Same for me

I am experiencing the same (or very similar) difficulty while attempting to compile zabbix 1.1beta2 on SuSE 9.3.
I have installed the following RPMs:
net-snmp version 5.2.1-5.2
net-snmp-devel version 5.2.1-5.2
MySQL-client version 5.0.15-0
MySQL-devel version 5.0.15-0
MySQL-server version 5.0.15-0
MySQL-shared version 5.0.15-0

as well as the source package for MySQL 5.0.15-0.

./configure --enable-server --enable-agent --with-mysql --with-net-snmp works without complaint, but when I run make, I see the errors mentioning undefined references to 'mysql_free_resilt'. I have tried the solutions from every post in these forums that mention compile errors (as of Nov. 18, 2005), but with no success. My only other guess is that perhaps the gcc version 3.3.5 that comes in this distribution may be the problem.

Ideas, anyone?

Thanks,

[elkor]

I doubt it's a gcc issue.

try adding the mysql include parameters to the END of the offending gcc command line instead of the begining.
Somebody pointed out recently that gcc reads the command line from the end first in order to resolve dependencies, perhaps this is the problem.

[rxm8028]

OK, seems to have worked

Well, I'm no C programmer, so it took me a while to figure out what I was looking at, but I finally determined that changing the Makefile in the zabbix_server source directory was the thing to do. I changed the line reading

zabbix_server_LDFLAGS = -L/usr/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient -lm -lz -L/usr/lib -lnetsnmp -lcrypto

so that it now reads

zabbix_server_LDFLAGS = -L/usr/lib -lnetsnmp -lcrypto -L/usr/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient -lm -lz

and make runs with no errors.

Thanks to all for the suggestions.

I don't see that line in the Makefile?

I have MySQL installed in /usr/local/mysql

I have installed the shared libraries for mysql under /usr/lib

I tried the following...

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/zabbix --enable-server --enable-agent --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-net-snmp

I then attempted a make and had the following output (more errors follow)

gcc -g -O2 -o zabbix_server -L/usr/local/mysql/lib -lmysqlclient -lm -lz -L/usr/lib -lnetsnmp evalfunc.o expression.o actions.o zlog.o functions.o server.o ../libs/zbxsysinfo/libzbxsysinfo.a ../libs/zbxsysinfo/linux/libzbxsysinfo2.a ../libs/zbxlog/libzbxlog.a ../libs/zbxpid/libzbxpid.a ../libs/zbxconf/libzbxconf.a ../libs/zbxcrypto/libzbxcrypto.a ../libs/zbxnet/libzbxnet.a pinger/libzbxpinger.a poller/libzbxpoller.a escalator/libzbxescalator.a housekeeper/libzbxhousekeeper.a alerter/libzbxalerter.a timer/libzbxtimer.a trapper/libzbxtrapper.a ../libs/zbxemail/libzbxemail.a ../libs/zbxdbhigh/libzbxdbhigh.a ../libs/zbxcommon/libzbxcommon.a -lresolv -lnsl

Any ideas, what specific things do I need to modify in Makefile?

Thanks,

Benjamin Goodrich

[BFGoodrich]

Ok...

I found another Makefile under src/zabbix_server

changing this Makefile variable did help
zabbix_server_LDFLAGS = -L/usr/lib -lnetsnmp -lcrypto -L/usr/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient -lm -lz

However, now I am getting yet another compile error.

This time...

What are the dependencies for Zabbix? Am I missing something here?

[krusty]

Have you install the net-snmp-devel, gcc-devel, mysql-devel packet?

[BFGoodrich]

Installed SNMP, MySQL, and gcc-devel

Have you install the net-snmp-devel, gcc-devel, mysql-devel packet?

I have installed MySQL into /usr/local
I have installed MySQL shared into /usr/lib
I have installed net-snmp into /usr/snmp (due to the error, tried to compile w/ SSL)
I have installed OpenSSL into /usr/local/ssl
GCC and development libraries are installed.

Any ideas?

[BFGoodrich]

Any Help?

I have not heard back from anyone. Is there a list of packages/dependencies that this product requires and how to do a proper configure with these components. I am still trying to get this to work on SUSE 9 Enterprise without much luck. I have installed my own version of MySQL, Apache, PHP, SSL, net-snmp (w/ SSL). Any help with this would be most appreciated.

[krusty]

if you use suse you have to look to the suse specific links. i can advise to use the suse original packages. If you installed your own packages only to have a system therewith it is up to date. Use after Suse installation the update function. Check it out with the original packages.

[BFGoodrich]

Even if it works with the SUSE packages, I still need to use my own versions. Their version of MySQL for SLES9 is dated, this also applies to Apache, PHP, etc. What I really need is a list of applications/dependencies that Zabbix requires. Like minimum software requirements and the correct order of flags for gcc. Is there somewhere that I can find this information?
