RRDtool include- or library-files not found.

Hi Phil,

Actually previously(very first time once i unable to do it via xymon
login) i did like that what you said("./configure", "make" and "make
install" for xymon-4.2.3 installation) need to do in root login.
But problem is i am unable to show graph as well unable to active "conn"
column(it is always showing white color).

Anyway once again i did same ("./configure", "make" and "make install") in
root login only. Client and Server folder got created.
I can able to connect between agents to collector server. XYMON Page is
displaying properly, Everything is fine except "trends" graph is not
displaying.

Kindly put some info regarding the same.

With Thanks & Regards,
Jayanta.

Hi Jayanta,

I need to do ./configure inside the xymon login. am i correct?

No, not at all. The xymon account is only for the already installed
system, not compiling.

It is odd that those rrd directories are not world readable, but anyway
run configure and make as root.

The rrd.sh already has /usr/local/rrdtool*   - that is enough, you
don't need to modify the file at all. Try running as root.

cheers, Phil

Hi Phil,

Thanks for you reply. I tryed what you mentioned in the following
mail. It
is not working.
I opened the file named "rrd.sh" which is present in the path
"/home/xymon/xymon-4.2.3/build" and kept the "rrd.h" file
path(/usr/local/rrdtool-1.0.50/include/) and lib path
(/usr/local/rrdtool-1.0.50/lib/) as well.
But problem is both the path we can not go via xymon login because
both path
belong to root privilage.

I need to do ./configure inside the xymon login. am i correct?

Kindly help me for this same.

With Regards,
Jayanta.

You need to ensure the headers are there, whereever they are: use
something like  rpm -ql rrdtool-whatever-it-is

If no headers there is probably an rrd-devel package - I'm not
using
redhat so don't know exactly.

Anyway the rpm -ql gives you the lib and .h locations. The file
that
does the rrd testing is  ~/xymon-4.2.3/build/rrd.sh  (as for pcre,
ldap,
etc)

In that file you can just insert the directory above where the lib
and
include directories are, ie /usr for /usr/lib64 and /usr/include

cheers.

Hi All,

I am using Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.5.
I installed rrdtool-1.0.50 successfully with steps(#./configure,

#

make,    # make install).
Similarly i installed pcre-8.12 successfully with
steps(#./configure,

   #

make,    # make install).

Finally once i try to install xymon-4.2.3 with first step $

./configure

Following error showing:

Checking for RRDtool ...
RRDtool include- or library-files not found. These are REQUIRED
for
hobbitd
RRDtool can be found at
http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/rrdtool/
If you have RRDtool installed, use the "--rrdinclude DIR" and

"--rrdlib DIR"

options to configure to specify where they are.
[xymon at t1vl001 xymon-4.2.3]$

Now i open the file "configure.server", but i can't understand
where
i need
to assign the above mention path. Also where can i find the

"rrdinlude" and

"rrdlib" path.

Kindly help me out for the same.

With Regards,
Jayanta.
