compilation problems

[Fosters]

Hi there,

I am trying to compile zabbix 1.8.2 under Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS
I use the following command :

./configure --prefix=/usr --with-mysql --with-net-snmp\
 --with-libcurl --enable-server --enable-agent &&
make

and have the following kind of error message in config.log :

conftest.c:10:28: error: ac_nonexistent.h: No such file or directory
conftest.c:69:19: error: mtent.h: No such file or directory
conftest.c:74:23: error: sys/pstat.h: No such file or directory
conftest.c:77:25: error: sys/loadavg.h: No such file or directory
...

The full log file is attached under config.log.zip (the tar.gz file is corrupted...) .

Can anybody help ?

Thanks.

Hi,

Have you installed development packages for mysql, snmp and curl libraries ?

You need to install:

• libmysqlclient-dev
• libsnmp-dev
• libcurl-dev

Thanks for the advice but I did install them. Here is the list of packages I installed :

- build-essential
- mysql-server (already installed)
- libmysqlclient15-dev
- php5 (already installed)
- php5-gd (already installed)
- php5-mysql (already installed)
- snmp (already installed)
- libsnmp-dev
- snmpd
- libcurl4-openssl-dev
- fping

could it be that one of them is not exactly what I needed ?

Yes, as mentioned in my first post, I installed it under Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS.
And the config files were created ander /etc/zabbix, and the binaries under /usr/sbin :
zabbix_server
zabbix_agentd : fir the local client
