NET-SNMP compile error on RHEL4 U4 x86_64

[vrtareg]

Hi

I try to compile zabbix on 64bit RHEL4 U4 system but get a NET-SNMP error:

--------------------
checking for curl-config... /usr/bin/curl-config
checking for the version of libcurl... 7.13.1
checking for libcurl >= version 7.13.1... yes
checking for main in -lcurl... yes
checking whether libcurl is usable... yes
checking for curl_free... yes
checking for net-snmp-config... /usr/bin/net-snmp-config
checking for main in -lnetsnmp ... no
configure: error: Not found NET-SNMP library
--------------------

Who notice this error?

I try to compile version 1.4.2 latest sources, 1.4.1 release compiles normally with the same packages of curl and net-snmp.


Thanks

try:

yum install net-snmp net-snmp-libs net-snmp-utils net-snmp-devel

Hi

All snmp packages are installed.

---------------------
[#]rpm -qa | grep snmp
net-snmp-devel-5.1.2-11.EL4.7
net-snmp-libs-5.1.2-11.EL4.7
net-snmp-5.1.2-11.EL4.7
net-snmp-perl-5.1.2-11.EL4.7
php-snmp-5.2.1-5
net-snmp-utils-5.1.2-11.EL4.7
---------------------

I forget to write version of zabbix.
I normally compile zabbix 1.4.1 and dont receive errors for snmp. Now i try to compile latest sources for version 1.4.2 and configure returns this error.
It seems that there are some errors in configure script.

1.4.2 not compiling NE-SNMP

I have the same problem on a Suse 10.1 machine.

1.4.1 compiles fine
1.4.2 failed, the error comes during configure.

checking for main in -lnetsnmp ...no
error: Not found NET-SNMP library

I remember a similiar problem with 1.4 or 1.4.1,
but I do not remember the solution

Look at that, maybe someone can tell me exactly what to do, and where to edtit

I found the solution.

I add -lcurl in configure script at line 10534 like this:

-LIBS="-lnetsnmp $LIBS"
+LIBS="-lnetsnmp -lcurl $LIBS"

This is only for version 1.4.2.

Thanks Areg,

that has worked also on Suse 10.1 with the change.

Great

I modified the configure script but the error still there
my environment:
Zabbix 1.4.2
FC4

log:
# rpm -qa |grep snmp
net-snmp-libs-5.2.1-12
net-snmp-5.2.1-12

#./configure --enable-server --with-sqlite3 --with-net-snmp -with-libcurl
...
...
checking for net-snmp-config...
configure: error: Invalid NET-SNMP directory - unable to find net-snmp-config



what can I do? thanks in advance!

[Alexei]

what can I do? thanks in advance!

Install net-snmp-devel.

[Jun.Liu]

Install net-snmp-devel.

hi, Alexei
Thanks your reply. I found the net-snmp-devel and installed it, but it said it need the beecrypt-devel & elfutils-devel pkgs installed beforehand, then I found and installed the two pkg, the elfutils-devel pkg said again the elfutils-libelf was needed, and then the elfutils.... I was crazy on these.. where is the end ? can you tell me any other way to implement net-snmp installation?

[Alexei]

where is the end ?

Well, I don't know. Ubuntu, Debian?

[swaterhouse]

if you do a yum install (or up2date) of net-snmp-devel it should install all the dependencies with it.

yum install net-snmp-devel

Hy,

I have the same error on all versions after 1.4.x, but for 1.5 seems that changing the line in configure script helps.
I run novell SLES 9.

[SharkCZ]

I have the same problem with Fedora build system. i386 and ppc variants are OK, only x86_64 is failing.

Can you post the relevant output from config.log?

[primos]

netsnmp

LIBS="-lnetsnmp -lssl $LIBS"

missing ssl is the real issue here.

for my SLES 9
