I need Help with Zabbix Proxy 5 and CentOS 6

[eliwap]

Hi Everyone

I can see that there is no zabbix-proxy 5.0.1 for CentOS 6. Is there going to be one?

I also tried to rebuild from SRPMs. I am getting the following error

go install -ldflags="-X zabbix.com/pkg/version.titleMessage=zabbix_agent2 -X 'zabbix.com/pkg/version.compileDate=`date +"%b %_d %Y"`' -X zabbix.com/pkg/version.compileTime=`date +%H:%M:%S` -X zabbix.com/pkg/version.compileOs=`go env GOOS` -X zabbix.com/pkg/version.compileArch=`go env GOARCH` -X main.confDefault=/etc/zabbix/zabbix_agent2.conf" zabbix.com/cmd/zabbix_agent2
go: github.com/alimy/mc/[email protected]: reading github.com/alimy/mc/go.mod at revision v2.0.3: unknown revision v2.0.3

Please help

Thanks

You don't need the zabbix_agent2 for the proxy. If you're just concerned with the proxy, you can remove the zabbix_agent2 related stuff from the spec file and completely skip that part.

Centos 6 is only a few months from being EOL.

Its schedualed to be EOL in November... Be that as it may we are still running CentOS 6 systems.... A few of them are running Zabbix Proxy and we recently upgraded Zabbix to 5.0.1. While CentOS 6 is still breathing, it would be wonderful it the full compliment were built.

I will remove the zabbix_agent2 stuff from the SPEC file and try again.... Thank you for the suggestion. I will let you know how it goes

Welll.... I managed to get the zabbix proxy for mysql built. I could not get the rpm package but, that was OK. I ran into another problem while the schema upgraded. It turns out that ... in schema.sql on line 348; the line that reads

CREATE INDEX `items_1` ON `items` (`hostid`,`key_`(1021));

produces and error about the key size exceeding the limit of 1000. After having to dump the tables, I altered the line to read

CREATE INDEX `items_1` ON `items` (`hostid`); and reimported the database.

Everything is working OK.
