These are basically the exact same I did and it worked however instead of commenting out the xymonmenu.css, this will work also: %attr(644, root, root) %config /var/lib/xymon/www/menu/xymonmenu-blue.css %attr(644, root, root) %config /var/lib/xymon/www/menu/xymonmenu-grey.css
I would also add that in: /usr/lib/xymon/client/etc/xymonclient.cfg on the server once the RPM is installed you need to replace the include statement with the below text: XYMSRV="" # IP address of the Xymon server XYMSERVERS="" # IP of multiple Xymon servers. XYMSRV must be "0.0.0.0".
This is because the init script for the client correctly uses the /etc/default/xymon-client to create a file /var/run/xymonclient-runtime.cfg that is what is included, but the server init script does not do these things.
Francois, did you have to do the above to make your servers client work?

Hi
I have built the rpms for rhel5 and rhel6. Had to extract the tar file and rpmbuild using the specfile (rpmbuild -bb) rather than build from tar file as the xymon.spec file gave me some errors. I ended up doing the following to get it building:
Untar the source file.
Edit rpm/xymon.spec: a. set the version number (Version: @VER@ changed to Version: 4.3.0) b. set the Source (Source: xymon- at VER@.tar.gz to Source: xymon-4.3.0.tar.gz) c. Remove the line (in the files section) %attr(644, root, root) %config /var/lib/xymon/www/menu/xymonmenu.css as this gives an error when building rpm (xymonmenu.css is not found). Not sure what impact this will have on the server rpm as I've only used the resulting xymon-client rpm that was created.
Put edited rpm/xymon.spec into /usr/src/redhat/SPECS
Copy rpm/xymon-client.default, /rpm/xymon-client.init, rpm/xymon-init.d and rpm/xymon.logrotate to /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
Copy tar file (xymon-4.3.0.tar.gz) to /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
cd /usr/src/redhat/ and run rpmbuild -bb SPECS/xymon.spec
There might be a better way to do it, but this got it building rpms for me :-)
Hope this helps

Hi,
The Xymon 4.3.0 was released and has anyone already tried to build RPMs for CentOS 5?
Thanks in advance.
