Spine Compile Issues Here

[egarnel]

Spine problems here:

Code: Select all

configure: error:

*** [Gentoo] sanity check failed! ***
*** libtool.m4 and ltmain.sh have a version mismatch! ***
*** (libtool.m4 = 1.5.22, ltmain.sh = "1.5.22 Debian 1.5.22-4") ***

Thats when I run:

Code: Select all

./configure

for spine.

This worked for me on CactiEZ 2b server (CentOs 4.5 final)

It's actually a ip_icmp.h structure formatting issue. It's troubling, but I might just have the fix.

Spine and cactiid cannot be compiled under Freebsd 6.2
at ./configure I get for both spine and cactiid.

configure: WARNING: netinet/ip.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure: WARNING: netinet/ip.h: check for missing prerequisite headers?
configure: WARNING: netinet/ip.h: see the Autoconf documentation

kindly help with a fix on this.

I'm in the same boat as many others. After squashing 3-4 other problems I now am left with the ip.h and ip_icmp.h issues... If I comment them out of the config the configure completes, but I would like a real fix. Besides, the actual compilation fails, though I am unsure if its related.

Many people seem eager for a fix...

Edit configure.ac line 99 and then change to:

Code: Select all

AC_CHECK_HEADERS(sys/types.h netinet/in.h netinet/in_systm.h netinet/ip.h netinet/ip_icmp.h)

Let me know how it goes. Don't have FreeBSD.

[zadrim]

i think it's the same:
line 99
#AC_CHECK_HEADERS(netinet/in.h netinet/ip.h netinet/ip_icmp.h)
AC_CHECK_HEADERS(sys/types.h netinet/in.h netinet/in_systm.h netinet/ip.h netinet/ip_icmp.h)

Yea, doing some research. It would appear that freebsd has some idiosyncrasies associated with the netinet headers. I will look at this further later sometime this weekend. Even go so far as to install FreeBSD on a VM.

Interesting.... I am having a similar failure, but my output is different from zadrim's... Probably Solaris 9 vs FreeBSD

This is after I had commented out the ip.h and ip_icmp.h checks...

All monitoring this post. Please try the SVN copy of Spine 0.8.7 and provide feedback. I think I have it nailed.

I've not used SVN before, but I downloaded new copies of ping.h, configure.ac, ping.c, common.h via the subversion site. I ran autoconf, and the above messages appeared when I ran configure. Solaris 9 box...

Hello,
how do I checkout the svn version of spine?
If I do a "marcus@ollowain:~/cacti/svn->svn checkout svn://svn.cacti.net/var/svnroot/spine"
I get this error:
"svn: No repository found in 'svn://svn.cacti.net/var/svnroot/spine'"

Regards

Let me backtrack... When I run configure, I do indeed still get the errors in the ip.h and ip_icmp.h files, however I just tried running make anyways. Spine compiled all of the way through. I'm hesitant to leave it running as my primary poller because it's so bleeding edge, but I did run it a couple of times and it seemed to work....

[TheWitness]

The Warning messages can be ignored in this case. It is an autoconf option that is not relevant as we are searching for only the presence of the headers.

TheWitness

[znapel]

Well I thank you for your work this weekend TheWitness... I will likely soon be using Spine, after I have a chance to kick it around the block.

[zentigger]

Well, I can build now using the new ping.h and ping.c. The poller runs, but doesn't seem to be working completely. It is also timing out--the php poller came close, but could usually squeeze in under 5 min...

Unfortunately other projects are screaming for my attention right now, so I will have to slide this to the back burner for now. If I have a chance, I will post more details...
