Hard coded path in Pre-compiled Zabbix 2.0.0 agent

[Netbulae]

Downloading, installing and running the pre-compiled Zabbix 2.0.0. agent; I get the following error:

cannot open config file [/home/build/zabbix-2.0.0/etc/zabbix_agentd.conf]: [2] No such file or directory

where exactly did you download it from ?

[Netbulae]

From the download page on zabbix.com

thanks for reporting. created a new issue for this : https://support.zabbix.com/browse/ZBX-5118

(note that you should be able to run agents anyway with -c flag)

I ran into the same problem on an Ubuntu 8.04 server. Netbulae is right, I modified the existing startup script to look like this:

#! /bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides:          zabbix-agent
# Required-Start:    $local_fs $network
# Required-Stop:     $local_fs
# Default-Start:     S
# Default-Stop:      0 6
# Short-Description: Start zabbix-agent daemon
### END INIT INFO
DAEMON=/usr/sbin/zabbix_agentd
NAME=zabbix_agentd
DESC="Zabbix agent"
PID=/var/run/zabbix-agent/$NAME.pid
CONF="--config /etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf"

test -f $DAEMON || exit 0

set -e

if ! [ -d `dirname $PID` ]; then
        mkdir -p `dirname $PID`
        chown zabbix:zabbix `dirname $PID`
fi

export PATH="${PATH:+$PATH:}/usr/sbin:/sbin"

case "$1" in
  start)
        rm -f $PID
        echo "Starting $DESC: $NAME" >&2
        start-stop-daemon --oknodo --start --pidfile $PID \
         --exec $DAEMON -- $CONF < /dev/null &> /dev/null
        ;;
  stop)
        echo "Stopping $DESC: $NAME"
        start-stop-daemon --oknodo --stop --exec $DAEMON
        ;;
  restart|force-reload)
        $0 stop
        sleep 2
        $0 start
        ;;
  *)
        N=/etc/init.d/$NAME
        echo "Usage: $N {start|stop|restart|force-reload}" >&2
        exit 1
        ;;
esac

exit 0

Thank you. It's good idea.
