Hi Oleksiy ,

You config.log
...
configure:12462: checking for SSH2 support
configure:12570: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -I/usr/local/include/mysql -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.9/mach/CORE -I/usr/local/include -I. -I/usr/local/include -I$/usr/local/include -L$/usr/local/lib conftest.c -lkvm -lm -ldevstat -lssh2 >&5
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lssh2
configure:12576: $? = 1
...

1. Could you please install Zabbix from FreeBSD ports collection ?

cd /usr/ports/net-mgmt/zabbix-server && make install
cd /usr/ports/net-mgmt/zabbix-agent && make install
cd /usr/ports/net-mgmt/zabbix-frontend && make install

2. If you want install Zabbix from source tarball, please check libssh2 and use CPPFLAGS/CFLAGS/LDFLAGS shell environment for configure script:

$ pkg_info |grep libssh
libssh2-1.2.5,2 A library implementing the SSH2 protocol

$ CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include" LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib" ./configure --enable-server --with-pgsql --with-net-snmp --with-ldap --with-ssh2 | grep -i ssh
checking for SSH2 support... yes
Libraries: -lkvm -lm -ldevstat -liconv -lcurl -lnetsnmp -lssh2

without CPPFLAGS/CFLAGS/LDFLAGS shell environment configure script not found libssh2:

$ ./configure --enable-server --with-pgsql --with-net-snmp --with-ldap --with-ssh2 | grep -i ssh
configure: error: SSH2 library not found
checking for SSH2 support... no

Thanks!

If SSH2 is installed in a directory other than those that configure script checks by default (/usr and /usr/local), you can also try --with-ssh2=DIR option.

Comment by Aleksandrs Saveljevs [ 2010 May 19 ]

In m4/libssh2.m4 there are lines like:

SSH2_CFLAGS=-I$/usr/include
SSH2_LDFLAGS=-L$/usr/lib

The dollar sign does not seem to be needed. Maybe that is what is causing your problem.

Comment by Aleksandrs Saveljevs [ 2010 May 19 ]

Dollar sign fix available in pre-1.8.3 in r12069.

Comment by Oleksii Zagorskyi [ 2010 May 19 ]

Alex Deiter,
install Zabbix from FreeBSD ports collection GUD (zabbix-server 1.8.2_1,2 with 'Use libssh2 for SSH-based checks').

I try script configure with last changes r12069 (removed Dollar sign) and now it work without error, thanks.
