"It fails" is not particularly specific.

I am runnng Ubuntu 11.04. I ran: sudo apt-get install libssl-dev I
also reran configure using the following command: sudo
./configure.server --pcreinclude /usr/inlcude --pcrelib /usr/lib --sslinclude /usr/include --ssllib /usr/include

It found the SSL libraries and asked if I want to enable SSL and I
said yes.  I then ran Make and Make Install successfully. I then
restarted Apache and Xymon but it still fails when I ask it to
monitor a website using https.

Jewel,

What version of linux are you running?  The openssl-devel package
mentioned by Paul contains the files that are often missing when
people run into this sort of issue. The same thing happens when
people don't install the various 'devel' packages.

Never leave the mailing list. Always reply all.

Yes, that is different.  We're talking Linux here. You don't
specify, so we on the list are forced to guess.

The openssl Linux package is just the executable. You need header
files, etc. to be able to compile things to use it.

I do have OpenSSL version 1.0.1 installed. Is this different?

reinstall Xymon after you add it.

I am running version 4.3.5 When I run xymonnet --version I
don't get any SSL libraries - just my version. I would like to
be able to monitor some https sites but when I add the urls to
the hosts.cfg file it fails.  I am running the web console for
my Xymon server over https.  I am a newbie to linux so
responses could be dummied down it would be greatly
appreciated.
