error when "make all"

[fretagi]

Hi I am new to nagios, please I need some assistance:

I am trying to install nagios on a solaris 10, so I downloaded the tarball, setup the pre-requisits for installing nagios, them extract nagios, and managed to run "./configure" with no errors at all.
But when running "make all" I have the following error at the very end of it:

Code: Select all

gcc -Wall -g -O2 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DNSCORE -c -o xdowntime-base.o ../xdata/xdddefault.c
gcc -Wall -g -O2 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DNSCORE  -c  ../common/snprintf.c

*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `nagios'
Current working directory /usr/local/nagios/base
*** Error code 1

Please can you help?

I've never seen that particular error before but I did find this:

Basically the snprintf.o is in the base directory rather than the common directory and the solution suggested was to create a soft link in the common dir to the actual file in the base dir.
