Nagios Support Forum

Hello,

I installed Nagios Core on a server, and I have several Windows clients monitored without any problem. Now I want to install the NRPE plugin in server and client to monitor a Linux client, too, follow the instructions for Nagios, but when I run the command. / Configure I get this error: "checking for SSL libraries ... configure: error: Can not find ssl libraries ".
The only thing I have found some support forums is that you need the package "libssl-dev" but I have it installed and I still shows the same error.

Did I leave any step in the installation?

regards

Run (in CentOS):
or run (in Ubuntu):
and post the output.

root@revnagios:~# dpkg --get-selections | grep openssl*
libcurl4-openssl-dev install
openssh-client install
openssh-server install
openssl install
python-openssl install

Looks like you may need:

apt-get install libssl-dev

Already tried that command, and the result is this:

libssl-dev is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

I think that I have installed this package.

P.D. I confirm that I have installed this package:
