Nagios Support Forum

Hi,
I'm trying to install the new version of nrpe-2.15 for HPUX 11.31ia-64 so that I can use command args. So far its not working.

I've tried to do this with the earlier versions without success. I have the nrpe 2.12 depot package(http://www.mayoxide.com/naghpux/) working but, alas, it doesn't use command args. I have studied the blogs (Cyrus doing the blog thing,etc) on the subject and tried the fixes with no luck. I'd appreciate your help.

Here's what I get when I run configure. At this point it doesn't matter whether I specify the ssl args or not. I get the same error.


$ PATH="$(cat /etc/PATH):/usr/local/bin" ./configure --with-libintl-lib=/opt/gtk2.6/lib --with-ssl-inc=/opt/openssl/include/openssl --with-ssl-lib=/opt/openssl/lib/hpux64 --enable-command-args
checking for a BSD-compatible install... ./install-sh -c

See `config.log' for more details.


thanks,
Penny

It looks like you are missing a library:

/usr/lib/hpux32/dld.so: Unable to find library 'libintl.so'.

And this is killing the gcc version check among other checks and is subsequently failing.
Can you make sure that you have: gettext, libiconv and zlib installed?

I don't know much about HPUX, but looking at the config.log errors, it seems to me that the compiler is failing, most probably because of missing dependencies. Try installing the gettext, libiconv and maybe zlib then try compiling again. Hope this helps.
