RE: [Nagios-db-devel] Error loading module

[Michael H. <mic...@ax...>]

I modified the makefile with the correct locations of the postgres =
libraries and Nagios headers for my system:
=20
all:
        gcc -Wall -g -O2 -o inserter.o inserter.c -shared =
-I/usr/local/src/nagios-2.0b3/include -I/usr/local/pgsql/include =
/usr/lib/libpq.a
=20
and did "make all". In hindsight the pgsql include directory did nothing =
as that directory doesn't exist but the postgres header is in =
/usr/include (rpm install of postgres) so it all worked out in the end. =
I copied the resulting inserter.o to my nagios installation.
=20
I am using the tarball from sourceforge; I'm not a developer and don't =
have CVS set up.
=20
Is there any chance that you could do a new release? Being able to =
configure the module would be a really nice feature to have...  :)
=20
Also if you could add a paragraph to README about how to add the NEB =
module to nagios (ie use a "broker_module" directive in nagios.cfg) this =
would be appreciated. As with all things it's obvious in hindsight but I =
did spend some time yesterday wondering WTF I was supposed to do with =
inserter.o.
=20
Thanks!

How did you compile the module? Somebody else had a similar issue, but
they had ommited some libraries.

If you pull from CVS, you can set the connection params in your nagios
config file. If you pull the most recent tarball (0.91 I believe) then =
you
have to modify inserter.c to change your connection settings.
