Nagios Support Forum

I am trying to compile Nagios 3.2.3 under Solaris-10 sparc 5.10 Generic_141444-09 using SUNWgcc 3.4.3 and SUNWgmake 3.8. My configure command is ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/nagios --with-command-group=nagcmd --with-gd-lib=/opt/sfw/lib --with-gd-inc=/opt/sfw/include and it seems to finish successfully. When I look at config.log I see a few "ld: fatal" errors which I will put below. Questions;
1. Do I need to resolve these fatal errors?
2. If I need to resolve these fatal errors does anyone have any clue?

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

thanks
Dan

Hi,
Did you ever find a solution to this?
I am having the same problem with asprintf in Solaris 10.
Looks like that's not included and its a major bummer.
Wondering how people get it compiled under Solaris 10 and can't seem to find much on the subject.

Best,
Jeff

The asprintf() function is in the {nagios-build-dir}/common/snprintf.c source file. Compile that and then link common/snprintf.o when building (the link is done automatically on Solaris but the compile is not).
