Problem with installing Zabbix 3.0.13 on Red Hat 4.8.5-4

[marcin11858]

I'm trying to install Zabbix 3.0.13 with MySQL from sources on Red Hat and I got below error when I was executing make install command:

Do you have any idea how I can solve this problem?
Thank you in advance

[volter]

Why are you trying to compile it on your own?

A missing -lssl might be the concrete problem.

Do you know where may be issue with this?

[Atsushi]

I think the RHEL 4 standard library is too old.
With standard libraries, you will not be able to build Zabbix server.
For building Zabbix server, please use the newer OS.

[volter]

That's quite possible, Atsushi. EL5 is unsupported by Redhat and EL4 more so. While I can somehow understand a need to have an agent on a long-unsupported legacy system, building the server doesn't make sense to me.

Hang on! EL4 and "systemd"? Something is wrong here.

[Atsushi]

Hi volter,
So I wrote that they will not be able to build Zabbix server with RHEL 4.

Also, in RHEL 4 you should use init instead of systemd for agent.

[marcin11858]

Unfortunately I can not change OS.
How can I use init instead of systemd?
This are my first steps with Zabbix.

[Atsushi]

Hi marcin11858,

If you can not change the OS, you can not build a Zabbix server on that server.
Please prepare another server.

init is the service management process installed by RHEL 4 by default.
It can be started and managed with init in the case of agent only.

[marcin11858]

I also can not prepare another server.
Maybe I should use docker Zabbix image?

[Atsushi]

Docker can not run on RHEL 4.
That OS is too old.

[marcin11858]

I change OS to Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.1 (Maipo)
and I also have the same error.

When I type:

systemctl start zabbix-server

I got:

Job for zabbix-server.service failed because a fatal signal was delivered to the control process. See "systemctl status zabbix-server.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

After check:

systemctl status zabbix-server.service

I got:

Please show me Zabbix server log.
