Building nrpe package for solaris 9

[ganeshanrs1983]

Team,

I compiled and manually installed nrpe 2.15 server successfully using the below command. While compilation it’s saying SSL library path is ( Yellow) but while building package getting error as mentioned in RED. If this resolved I am ready to deliver the solaris 9 package but stuck up in the final stage need help.

checking for SSL headers... SSL headers found in /usr/local/ssl/include/..
checking for SSL libraries... SSL libraries found in /usr/local/ssl/lib

checking for SSL headers... SSL headers found in /usr/local/ssl
checking for SSL libraries... configure: error: Cannot find ssl libraries
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `build'
Current working directory /home/nagios/testing/nrpe-2.15/package/solaris
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `solaris-package'

Please find the attachment for errors and command

Did you read README.Solaris?

Compiling on Solaris

Several changes may be necessary in order to compile NRPE on Solaris.
This information is known to apply to Solaris 10 and may apply to other
verisions of Solaris. This has been tested on Solaris 10 x86.

There are three things that you may need to compile NRPE on Solaris:

        1. Add /usr/sfw/bin to your path
                $ PATH="$PATH:/usr/sfw/bin"
        2. Specify the binary to be used for make-ing
                $ MAKE=gmake ./configure
        3. Use gmake to build the code
                $ gmake all

Thanks to Kevin Pendleton at UtahSysAdmin.com
(http://www.utahsysadmin.com/2008/03/14/configuring-nagios-plugins-nrpe-on-solaris-10/)
for the instructions on finding the SSL libraries.

From that site:

Code: Select all

./configure –with-ssl=/usr/sfw/ –with-ssl-lib=/usr/sfw/lib/

Let us know if that doesn't work and we'll update the documentation appropriately.

We have manually installed nrpe v2.15 on solaris 9 server. But we are facing some issues while building the package. Don't know from where it's trying to copy the check_nrpe. Please help me..

The nrpe bin should be built in the "src" folder. Are you sure it built correctly?

[ganeshanrs1983]

We have to run the below command under nrpe 2.15 path not from nrpe 2.15/src

make solaris-package

[ssax]

Are you saying that "make solaris-package" solved your problem or are you still experiencing the same issue?

Issue is resolved. Please close this thread.
