NetXMS Support Forum

Hello

I'm installing NetXMS 0.2.31 in a solaris 10 server. Configure run ok with some warnings related to libiconv.so:
"ld: aviso: archivo /usr/local/lib/libiconv.so: intento de inclusión múltiple de archivo"

Now i'm running make but the process stopped with the following error:

The following command caused the error:

Any ideas why is this happening? Thank you in advance.

Ok
making some research i found that : "Arithmetic expansion is not portable as some shells (most notably
Solaris 10 `/bin/sh') don't support it."

Now the issue is to force configure and make to use some smarter shell like bash instead of sh.

Any ideas?

One step ahead, after looking for elegant solutions i decided to use a quick fix:

cp /bin/sh /bin/sh.tmp
cp /bin/bash /bin/sh

It worked until new errors appeared in make:

odbcsapi.cpp:28:17: sql.h: No such file or directory
odbcsapi.cpp:29:20: sqlext.h: No such file or directory
odbcsapi.cpp:30:22: sqltypes.h: No such file or directory

Until a solution can be found for these new ones, /bin/sh was returned to normal state

Any ideas?

Hello!

How do you run ./configure? odbcsapi.cpp is a part of odbcquery subagent, which compiles only if --enable-unstable is set. Try to run configure without that switch.

Best regards,

Hi Victor

What advantages do i get installing netxms with --enable-unstable?  indeed i ran configure with that option set, I will try without it.

My configure was ./configure --prefix=/opt --enable-unstable --with-server --with-server --with-mysql --with-gd --with-nxhttpd

Hello

Without --enable-unstable in config, make and make install worked fine.

Hi!

Currently, --enable-unstable only enables ODBCQUERY subagent. If you ever need it, you will have to install UNIXODBC first, and then it should compile as well.

Best regards,
Victor
