Installing NRPE on Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS

[dzagyva]

I am trying to install the latest NRPE Linux client on an Ubuntu server using the fullinstall script and I am getting the following error.

linux-nrpe-agent/subcomponents/nagiosplugins/nagios-plugins-2.0.3/plugins/sslutils.c:69: undefined reference to `SSLv3_client_method'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status



Has anyone run into this? Thanks.

What version of NRPE are you attempting to install, and how are you doing so? Can you show us the instructions or what you've ran so far?

I believe this is related to https://github.com/nagios-plugins/nagio ... /issues/63 which indicates it has been fixed, can you try using the dev version 3.0? https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/nr ... pe-3.0-RC2

I am not sure on the version, the nagios server gave me the link when I add a new Linux Server. I am checking the installation files but I have yet to see a version. To install it I have used the same procedure on a few other servers with no issues but they are RHEL servers. I unzip the package and run ./fullinstall

Did you follow the document below?

Can you post the entire install.log?

Another option, it looks like there are NRPE packages available for your server so you don't have to compile them.
Take a look at this link.
