nagios compilation problems >> SOLUTION

[Philipp.Straka at avl.com]

Hi Brian!
 
Thx - you brought up an idea in my head. Up to now, I only had the devel
rpms and the client rpms installed. When I installed the shared library rpms
from www.mysql.com <http://www.mysql.com/>  additionally to the first two
rpms, compilation worked out! 
 
Summary of installed RPM packages: 
 
MySQL-devel-4.0.15-0
MySQL-client-4.0.15-0
MySQL-shared-4.0.15-0
 
...all from www.mysql.com <http://www.mysql.com/> , working fine on Red Hat
9
 
Thanx a lot also to Marc for his support!
All the best, 
Phil

I had the same problems you are describing. I tried several different ways
of installing mysql, libraries and clients. Finally, the only way I could
get Nagios 1.1 to compile with mysql support was to remove mysql and install
the version that came with Redhat 9.0. Then I let Redhat up2date upgrade the
version to 3.23.56-9. This still would not work, so I downloaded the
mysql-devel-3.23.56-9 from rpmfind.net. 
 
Then, go into the nagios-1.1 source directory and 'make clean'
then ./configure --with-mysql-xdata --with-mysql-lib=/usr/lib/mysql
--with-mysql-inc=/usr/include/mysql
then make all
 
Hope this helps.
 
Brian.

I need help. 
 
-- When I try to compile, the compiler tells me, that the files
./xdata/x?ddb.c at line xx produce the error "no such file". 
-- In the specified line of the c files, there is an include statement
requesting the files "mysql.h" and "errmsg.h". 
-- I altered the include statement there from "mysql/mysql.h" to "mysql.h"
and supplied the configure script with "-with-mysql-inc=/usr/local/include"
(left the dir mysql away) 
-- The new error is coming from "mysql.h". This file has an include
statement in line 107 requesting for the file "my_alloc.h" 
-- The file "my_alloc.h" I found in the include directory of the src
distribution of mysql. 
-- When I tried to compile after having copied this file to the location
specified in "mysql.h:107", there was another error. It is an "undefined
reference to mysql_init()", most probably because the "my_alloc.c" file is
not there with the corresponding header file. But I could not find the .c
file anywhere! 
 
What can I do to get Nagios up'n'running?
 
I would be glad for help! :o)
