[hobbit] Problem building Hobbit on a Solaris 10 zone

I will create a version of hobbit server package for sparc and intel solaris 10 for hobbit community. but I hope you can wait. the package will be here

http://hobbitmon.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/hobbitmon/branches/tjyang/dist/c...

I didn't use gcc to compile hobbit on Solaris platform. package source will be released also.

Hi, I have been trying to build a Hobbit server in a Solaris 10 non-global zone (or container), having downloaded the 4.2.0 source kit. I believe I have met all the prerequisites, but when I come to the "make" stage, the build fails.

I spent some time checking what I had done and searching for known problems, so apologies if the information is already out there and I've missed it.

I repeated the steps I went through on another similar server, but this time built the kit in the global zone, and it built OK. Has anyone sucessfully built a hobbit server in a Solaris 10 non-global zone?

Details: OS: Solaris 10 1/06 Hobbit 4.2.0 Hardware: SunFire V240 (Sparc).

The configure goes OK. The make seems to be OK up to this point:

(cd c-ares && CFLAGS="-g -O2 -Wall -Wno-unused -D_REENTRANT -DSunOS -I. -I/export/home/user1/hobbit-4.2.0/include -I/usr/local/include" ./configure --disable-shared) shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: Error 0 job-working-directory: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: Error 0

This message repeats lots of times, then a bunch of:

cat: cannot open confdefs.h

messages, and the whole session ends with:

checking for library containing gethostbyname... -lnsl checking for library containing socket... -lsocket checking whether to enable debug options... no configure: error: cannot run /bin/bash ./config.sub make[1]: *** [c-ares/Makefile] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/export/home/user1/hobbit-4.2.0/bbnet' make: *** [bbnet-build] Error 2

          Cheers,

                    John
