XYmon upgrade from 4.3.10 to 4.3.17 🔗 link

Hi,

I¹ve been looking but probably not good enough. I¹m  trying to update Xymon
from 4.3.10 to 4.3.17 but can¹t seem to find any upgrade manuals. Can anyone
point me in the right direction?

Thanks,

Rob

Nothing special needed. Just install over the top of it. Since I usually use the version number in the PATH, I copy the old PATH to the new one, configure and install to it, then just adjust the PATH in the config files.

Thanks, trying it right now. Unfortunately getting an error. config.server
goes without any issues. The make install on the other hand gives back the
following error:

chown xymon /usr/lib/xymon/data/rrd
chgrp `id -g xymon` /usr/lib/xymon/data/rrd
chmod 755 /usr/lib/xymon/data/rrd
XYMONHOME="/usr/lib/xymon/server" MANROOT="/usr/local/man" XYMONUSER="xymon"
IDTOOL="id" PKGBUILD="" INSTALLROOT=""
INSTALLBINDIR="/usr/lib/xymon/server/bin"
INSTALLETCDIR="/usr/lib/xymon/server/etc"
INSTALLEXTDIR="/usr/lib/xymon/server/ext"
INSTALLTMPDIR="/usr/lib/xymon/server/tmp"
INSTALLWEBDIR="/usr/lib/xymon/server/web"
INSTALLWWWDIR="/usr/lib/xymon/server/www" make -C common install
make[1]: Entering directory `/install/xymon-4.3.17/common'
cc  -c -o xymongrep.o xymongrep.c
xymongrep.c:23:21: fatal error: version.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
make[1]: *** [xymongrep.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/install/xymon-4.3.17/common'
make: *** [install-common] Error 2

In my /install/xymon-4.3.17/common directory there is a xymongrep.1 but no
xymongrep.0. So I can imagine the error. Any idea why it looks for the .0
instead of the .1 ?

Thanks,

Rob

Rob, your issue is here:

"xymongrep.c:23:21: fatal error: version.h: No such file or directory"

version.h is a header file included in linux-headers package (at least in
Gentoo Linux)

on Gentoo:

emerge -va linux-headers


On a Debian-based system, then you want to:

apt-get install build-essential


Red Hat based:

yum install kernel-headers


Then try building Xymon again.   Basically, you are missing some dependencies,
and there may be others once you have this dependency installed.


Hope this helps

Bill
