Compiling nagios plugins in AIX

rajasegar · Post by **rajasegar** » Thu Jun 05, 2014 6:55 am

AIX 6.1
Nagios plugins 2.0.1

Can you please advice what are the environment variables to set to compile in AIX?
Seem to get some conflict errors during make

I will look into this when I get a chance. As we don't have an AIX box to test on, we may have to rely on conjecture and your (and others) attempts to resolve the issue. My initial suspicion is that your platform needs to have config.h included first (judging from a quick google). I opened up an issue on github, though it may be a bit before I get a chance to really dig into this.
https://github.com/nagios-plugins/nagio ... /issues/40
Did you have issues with previous nagios-plugins sources as well?

rajasegar,

Can you put this check_tcp.c in nagios-plugins-2.0.1/plugins/check_tcp.c and compile again?

If check_tcp compiles, the build might fail next on negate.c
If that happens, put the attached negate.c in nagios-plugins-2.0.1/plugins/negate.c and compile again.

Please let us know if these changes fix the problems. There may be other problems after these.

Thanks for the assistance.
Same make with nagios-plugins 1.5.1. I am not entirely sure now if it is the same errors.

Prediction correct about more problems

Can you port the full output from ./configure? The configure script should have linked math.h or skipped the plugin if mathlibs was not available.

emislivec · Post by **emislivec** » Fri Jun 06, 2014 12:46 pm

It looks like the math libs aren't being added to the link. There should be a "-lm" on the line with "-lnsl -lbsd -lpthread -ldl". This should be detected and set by ./configure. Do you have the latest updates for the build tools? IBM has released fixes for similar problems in the past.

Can you run

Code: Select all

make distclean
./configure

and rebuild?

If you are still having problems, you may need to rebuild the ./configure script. To do this you need the latest code from GitHub, which has the changes to check_dig.c and negate.c

You can download the latest snapshot from: https://github.com/nagios-plugins/nagio ... master.zip
If you're comfortable with git, you can also

Code: Select all

git clone https://github.com/nagios-plugins/nagios-plugins.git

To rebuild the ./configure script

Code: Select all

cd nagios-plugins
./tools/setup

You will need autoconf and automake installed to run ./tools/setup. After this you can run ./configure and make like before.

The output from ./tools/setup and ./configure would be helpful for troubleshooting.

Let us know how it goes.

I will take a look at this tomorrow, though it is starting to look like you may have issues with your headers or toolchain. Where did you get the GNU toolchain from? (as they don't ship with AIX)
