HPUX 11.23 IA64

Confirmed on HP-UX 11.23 Itanium.

This problem is introduced in 2.0 with net.if.discovery functionality. In order to discover network interfaces if_nameindex() and if_freenameindex() functions are used. From the man page it is stated that (as Dimitri Bellini suggested above) in order to use these functions application should be linked with libipv6 library.

Fixed in development branch svn://svn.zabbix.com/branches/dev/ZBX-5171 .

i assume not, but maybe this solved parts of ZBX-1998 as well ?

Nope, that issue is about server compilation. Actually I haven't even tried compiling Server on HP-UX.

I took a stab at compiling the svn version, configure is croaking on me here:

checking for architecture... ok (hpux11.11)
./configure[7317]: Syntax error at line 8474 : `(' is not expected.

I just checked on 11.11 itanium, there is no such error:

[...]
checking for architecture... ok (hpux11.31)
checking for ICONV support... yes
[...]

Did you check out the svn://svn.zabbix.com/branches/dev/ZBX-5171 branch and generated configure script using ./bootstrap.sh?

Could you attach config.log and configure files?

Yes, I pulled that version from svn and ran bootstrap.sh to generate the configure script. Attaching configure and config.log. Thanks for your help.

I have added commit (r28786) to the branch. Could you try that again and if that fails, reattach new configure and config.log please.

As I understood you ran ./configure without any options. That still should not be giving an error above but in any case, could you also try ./configure --enable-agent and see if you get the error again.

Same result... I did use --enable-agent, I have been except for the last run I supplied I forgot to use it.

Could you also generate the output from configure?

./configure --enable-agent >/tmp/configure.log 2>&1

and attach /tmp/configure.log too?

configure.log attached, thanks.

(1) compilation does not work under HP-UX 11.11 PA-RISC with native compiler

/usr/ccs/bin/ld: Can't find library: "ipv6"

<dimir> Fine with me. CLOSED

Eric, thank you for your attachments. It's still unclear why the error happens though. I could not reproduce it on 11.11, 11.23, 11.31. Could you try the latest commit and see if the problem is still there?

Which OS version do you have by the way?

I'm using HP-UX 11.11. Now the configure errors out with this.

configure: error: cannot compile agent because ipv6 library is not available

I'm assuming this is by design and I need to install the ipv6 libraries. It's not installed by default on older HP-UX versions, so not having it will be a common problem for older OS versions. I was hoping to be able to bypass the requirement.

OK, it was decided to get rid of the ipv6 library dependency for the older HP-UX machinges (prior to 11.31). The code is being tested and will be available on Monday I believe.

(3) Get rid of agent ipv6 library dependency.
