cactid configure time difficulty

[zimxx]

im having some trouble configuring cactid, i'm excited about the new poller because my polls take well over 5 minutes to complete due to the sheer quantity of them. anyway... it seems that configure's finding the mysql includes happily and im pointing it to my install of net-snmp. it seems to choke on libcrypto.

tis a redhat 7.3 system im pointing configure to net-snmp with

i fixed it, this was in fact, while it may not have seemed so by the log and errors, a mysql problem.

i was able to get cactid to compile using:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/wanmon --sysconfdir=/usr/local/wanmon/etc --with-snmp=/usr/local/wanmon

it wouldn't compile when i specified the mysql installation i wanted it to use. so i used the distributions mysql stuff under /usr/lib/mysql and /usr/include/mysql

the following did *not* work.
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/wanmon --sysconfdir=/usr/local/wanmon/etc --with-snmp=/usr/local/wanmon/include --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql


I am surpised that configure hasn't been fixed for this issue.


UPDATE:

removing the distributions mysql libraries and headers, and rerunning configure with the following worked quite nicely for me.

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/wanmon --sysconfdir=/usr/local/wanmon/etc --with-snmp=/usr/local/wanmon --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql

net-snmp was configured with:
where prefix=/usr/local/wanmon
if [ -f net-snmp-5.3.0.1.tar.gz ] ; then
tar zxf net-snmp-5.3.0.1.tar.gz && \
cd net-snmp-5.3.0.1 && \
./configure --prefix=$prefix \
--with-default-snmp-version="1" \
--with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl && \
--with-sys-contact="$user@localhost" \
--with-sys-location="inside the ndmonitor appliance" \
--with-logfile="$prefix/var/log/snmpd.log" \
--with-persistent-directory="$prefix/var/net-snmp" \
--without-rpm \
make && \
make install
cd $CWD
fi

Can you please try Beta3 in the Announcements forum and then run the "auto" tools as described. The configure.ac at the bottom of the post, is the one I would like you to try. Please post here and there, your results.

Thanks,
