[Inotify-tools] inotify_init Failed

[abhishek g. <zea...@ya...>]

Hi,

I installed [inotify]([url]https://github.com/rvoicilas/inotify-tools/wiki[/url]) and plugin code into my 
existing code for watch file.I am always getting message that `inotify failed`.

I googled and found that kernel should with inotify option.(Not sure how will I check as I am using remote machine).

I have added all shared library in compilation.( does not relate but in case any possibility)

`Linux machinename 2.6.9-89.ELsmp #1 SMP Mon Apr 20 10:33:05 EDT 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux`

Any idea How can I debug the issue as I am using inotify tool first time


    inotify = inotify_init();
             if(inotify<0)
             {
                 loginfo<<" inotify_init fail"<<inotify<<endl;
             }
    
     output = -1
 


Thanks
