Hi Roland

Thanks for the quick response.

I have built Xymon on Solaris many times too, and agree, it should just work. I did find something interesting just a minute ago. Looking through the Makefile, to check what it's looking for, and notices something odd about the c-ares definitions. See below. Notice the CARESLIBS has no directory defined after the -L I changed that to CARESLIBS = -L/opt/csw/lib -lcares And we moved on. Only to hit another one. gcc -g -O2 -Wall -Wno-unused -D_REENTRANT -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -DSunOS -I/var/tmp/xymon-4.3.17/include -I/opt/csw/include -I/opt/csw/include -I/opt/csw/include -DRRDTOOL12 -c -o do_rrd.o do_rrd.c gcc -o xymond_rrd xymond_rrd.o xymond_worker.o do_rrd.o client_config.o ../lib/libxymontime.a -lrt ../lib/libxymoncomm.a -L/usr/sfw/lib -lssl -lcrypto -lresolv -lsocket -lnsl -lrt -L/opt/csw/lib -lrrd -L/opt/csw/lib -lpcre Undefined first referenced symbol in file XRenderCreateLinearGradient /opt/csw/lib/libcairo.so.2 XRenderCreateRadialGradient /opt/csw/lib/libcairo.so.2 XRenderCreateSolidFill /opt/csw/lib/libcairo.so.2 ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to xymond_rrd collect2: ld returned 1 exit status Makefile:62: recipe for target 'xymond_rrd' failed gmake[1]: *** [xymond_rrd] Error 1 gmake[1]: Leaving directory '/var/tmp/xymon-4.3.17/xymond' build/Makefile.rules:108: recipe for target 'xymond-build' failed gmake: *** [xymond-build] Error 2

My next Xymon install will be on Linux! No exceptions!

Make SURE /usr/local/<something> or /usr/sfw/<something> is not in any path.

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=””

which gmake

/opt/csw/bin/gmake

which ld

MAKE=gmake ; /configure

gmake

OK, I was correct about the library packages.

Once I installed them, it resolved most of my problems, and the configure script completed OK.

On to the make. (Or gmake in my case) And we hit the next hurdle. gcc -g -O2 -Wall -Wno-unused -D_REENTRANT -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -DSunOS -I/var/tmp/xymon-4.3.17/include -I/opt/csw/include -o xymonnet xymonnet.o contest.o httptest.o httpresult.o ldaptest.o dns.o dns2.o httpcookies.o -L -lcares -L/opt/csw/lib -lldap -llber ../lib/libxymontime.a -lrt ../lib/libxymoncomm.a -L/usr/sfw/lib -lssl -lcrypto -lresolv -lsocket -lnsl -lrt ../lib/libxymon.a -L/opt/csw/lib -lpcre Undefined first referenced symbol in file ares_process dns.o ares_gethostbyname dns.o ares_strerror dns.o ares_init_options dns.o ares_search dns.o ares_fds dns.o ares_destroy dns.o ares_timeout dns.o ares_expand_name dns2.o ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors.

Any ideas?
