This is what I get when I run "make -s" as instructed after running ./configure.client...

./configure.client

Configuration script for Xymon client

This script asks a few questions and builds a Makefile to compile Xymon

Checking your make-utility

Xymon normally keeps all of the client configuration files on the Xymon server. If you prefer, it is possible to use a local client configuration file instead - if so, answer 'client' to the next question. NB: Local configuration requires the PCRE libs on each host.

Server side client configuration, or client side [server] ? client

Checking for the PCRE libraries Checking for PCRE ... Compiling with PCRE library works OK Linking with PCRE library works OK

Checking for Large File Support ... Large File Support OK

Checking for clock_gettime() requiring librt ... clock_gettime() requires librt

What userid will be running Xymon [xymon] ?

Found passwd entry for user xymon:x:1984:1984::/usr/local/xymon:/bin/false

Where do you want the Xymon installation [/usr/local/xymon] ?

OK, will configure to use /usr/local/xymon as the Xymon toplevel directory

What is the IP-address of your Xymon server [127.0.0.1] ?

** NOTE: Using 127.0.0.1 (loopback), but it is probably not what you want **

Using Linux Makefile settings

Created Makefile with the necessary information to build Xymon Some defaults are used, so do look at the Makefile before continuing.

Configuration complete - now run make -s (GNU make) to build the tools

make -s

pcre and pcre-devel are installed. I can;t find it at the moment but one of my runs complained about the clock_gettime() (?) call. It was complaining about librt but I'm still trying to track that down. This is on RHEL 6.3. It's possible I may still be missing something. I ran the full install (client and server) on my Ubuntu machine without issue.

I need help compiling the client.

I have compiled the server and it's working fine. Now I need to compile the client but it doesn't compile. The first error (which I can't remember) I have corrected compiling the server before the client.

Now I get the following error:

make[1]: Entering directory /usr/src/xymon-4.3.12/xymond' make[1]: *** No rule to make target ../lib/xymonclient.a', needed by ../client/xymond_client'. Stop. make[1]: Leaving directory /usr/src/xymon-4.3.12/xymond' make: *** [xymond-client] Error 2

Seems there is a problem with the Makefile's when trying to build the client in the non-default "client-side" configuration.

I don't have a quick fix for it, but I would also recommend using the server-side configuration.
