Hello

I try to compile nagios 4.0.8 on Mac (10.9.4) with macports and it fails like this

:info:build make[2]: Entering directory `/opt/local/var/macports/build/_Users_user_ports_net_nagios/nagios/work/nagios-4.0.8/lib'

:info:build 1 warning and 1 error generated.
:info:build make[2]: *** [runcmd.o] Error 1

pointers to solve that?

Thanks

This is a mistake on my part. I had undefined HAVE_SETENV to force that code path in earlier development, but obviously not when/after adding in the error checking. I've just committed a fix so this should be resolved for the future.

To get this to build you could try the current master from GitHub that has this fixed: https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/na ... 89a8c6.zip

Otherwise edit lib/runcmd.c:590 to:

Code: Select all

	if (asprintf(&env_string, "%s=%s", name, value) == -1) return -1;

lib/runcmd.c:592:

Code: Select all

		errno = ENOMEM;

The changes needed will look like this: https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/na ... ca3b89a8c6

Thanks emislivec.
No problem. Everyone shoots his-self sometimes, just don't kill you
