[mrtg] Re: gd problem

[JKennedy at Claritas.Com]

Thanks for the tip, my own fault for going in a straight line and not
looking at the big picture.

Apparently I don't need to install the libraries, I just needed to change
the directory names to what mrtg would be looking for.  I had put all the
tar files in the same directory but hadn't changed the default directory
names created by these files.  zlib and libpng were what it wanted.

Everything built fine after that.  Now to configure it.  Another block
since I already ran cfgmaker and I got SNMP errors.  I don't think SNMP is
turned on at the router and I'm not sure we'll want to.  Any tips on
keeping that secure?

Thanks again.

Jeff,
     I experienced the same problems as you, and finally found in
/mrtg-2.89 a README file, follow up this file and it will work ok.
     Place all your tar files in the same directory and run the tar -xvf
from there, if dont, you will see probelms like those you are mentioning.

Hope it helps.

Ruben.

Subject:  [mrtg] gd problem


I'm hoping someone has the time (and patience) to help me with this.  I am
new to MRTG and in the process of setting up all the prereq's for it.  I've
got zlib and libpng installed but gd is giving me a problem.

zlib and libpng are installed in /usr/local (default) and that's where I'm
trying to put gd.  However, when I 'make install' it error's out saying it
can't open /usr/local/lib/libgd.a: no such file or directory.  Now, the
actual file libgd.a is not there, that's what the install is supposed to do
(libgd.a IS in the make directory though).  But the directory
/usr/local/lib is definitely there, that's where the other 2 libraries
reside.

I've gone over the makefile several times and the INCLUDEDIRS and LIBDIRS
settings are both /usr/local and the make install directive seems correct.
This is the default setup straight from download.

Anyone have time to walk a newbie through the process?

Thanks.
