No /etc/zabbix after make what's the problem ?

[Dave96]

Hi,

The folder zabbix is not created in /etc/zabbix. My make doesn't show any error on completion (it does during the make though).

Anyone can help?

Here it is:

Make does not create /etc/zabbix. The directory has to be created manually.

[Dave96]

what goes in it than?

[Alexei]

Please check ZABBIX Manual. The directory shall contain server and agent configuration files.

You have to create the directory /etc/zabbix manually. Then you have to copy the config files from ../zabbix/misc/conf/* to /etc/zabbix. Maybe you have change some entries in the config files. Then you can run the zabbix prozess.

That information an many more are shown in the manual.
