hi,
i’m trying to install nagios with mysql support but when i run make all i get following messages:

…/xdata/xrddb.c:42:26: mysql/errmsg.h: No such file or directory

mysql-devel is installed right?
Show us the command and output that shows that.

yes mysql-devel is installed.

./configure --with-mysql-xdata --with-mysql-status --with-mysql-comments --with-mysql-extinfo --with-mysql-retention --with-mysql-lib=/usr/local/mysql/lib --with-mysql-inc=/usr/local/mysql/include

and i get following output (for make all):

hmm…or you asked for ./configure output?

if you install 1.3 be sure you want to keep it.
V2 does not suport MySQL anymore. so it could be worth usingnagios without it if you plan to migrate in a short-medium term (like when it’s out of beta)

well, i need nagios with mysql support (i suppose i could use 1.2 or 1.3)

may i ask what you need the mysql support for ?

Luca

[quote=“luca”]may i ask what you need the mysql support for ?

Luca[/quote]

i develop some application and i need status of network hosts so i thought i could import host status from nagios through mysql…

ok, sorry, i had a momentary suspect you wanted mysql support to monitor mysql hosts… :slight_smile:

As for your problem i don’t remember how i did my first install of Nagios… (switched to 2b since) anyway checking debian packages i found two distinct mysql-dev and mysql-devel listed… could it be this?

Hi.

I’m experiencing the same errors.
My system is running Fedora Core 4.
MySQL-standard-5.0.18 is installed from source and MySQL-devel-5.0.18 is installed from an RPM, both downloaded from the MySQL website.
I ran the Nagios configure script with the following parameters: --with-mysql-xdata --enable-embedded-perl --with-mysql-lib=/usr/local/mysql/lib --with-mysql-inc=/usr/local/include/mysql
When running “make all” I get the following result:

Do you have any ideas how to resolve this issue?
Or would I be better off not installing Nagios 1.3 with MySQL support, but use event handlers instead to insert data into my MySQL database?

[quote=“luca”]As for your problem i don’t remember how i did my first install of Nagios… (switched to 2b since) anyway checking debian packages i found two distinct mysql-dev and mysql-devel listed… could it be this?

Luca[/quote]

hm…i’m running suse 9.3

Diffie: check you have all mysql packages installed… mysql-server mysql-common mysql-client and mysql-dev.

ivant: don’t know possily there are 2 different packages in suse too… not using rpm for a long time so i don’t remember how to check available packages :slight_smile:

Luca

[quote=“jakkedup”]mysql-devel is installed right?
Show us the command and output that shows that.[/quote]

What I was looking for is the rpm command and the output that shows that you have the libs installed. It doesn’t look like it to me, so show me that I’m wrong.

hm…according to luca’s post i shoud have mysql-common installed but i couldn’t find it for suse (maybe it’s included in some other mysql packages that i have installed)
