[Xymon] Monitoring HTTPS sites

[Tim McCloskey]

Can you actually 'su - ' to root on this box?  I suspect that your environment does not have proper path and lib path statements.  If you can't su to root then most likely you WILL need to provide the path to the SSL goodies.  You will need to see where the libraries and include files are installed.  Usually /usr/local/ssl, might be /usr/local/openssl on your system.  Use whatever tools you have to find the install location for these packages and add the flags as needed. 

apt-file list libssl-dev
apt-file list libssl0.9.8


--sslinclude DIRECTORY   : Specify location of OpenSSL include files
--ssllib DIRECTORY       : Specify location of OpenSSL libraries


./build/ssl.sh shows the search patterns.

Good Luck,

Tim

When I run (sudo ./configure.server --pcreinclude /usr/include --pcrelib /usr/lib)  I get the following: "OpenSSL include or library-files not found.

Good, you've got the required SSL stuff.  You should be able to perform a clean build of Xymon now.  

Give it a go and let us know how it goes :)
