[Xymon] Cannot link with SSL Library

[Robles, Chris]

Thank you.  This work-around, worked.  I had to delete my Xymon install folder and un-package a fresh copy, but once I did that and followed these instructions, Xymon compiled with OpenSSL support.

Check out this old post.  http://lists.xymon.com/archive/2007-June/013621.html ...

It seems that your openssl libraries do not automatically pull in the

libdl library when you link with it.



As a workaround, you can change build/Makefile.test-ssl: The "test-link"

command reads

   @$(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(OSSLLIB) -o test-ssl test-ssl.o -lssl -lcrypto $(NETLIBS)

Add a "-ldl" after the "$(NETLIBS)".



That should allow the configure script to complete. After that, you must

change the top-level Makefile: It has a line with

   SSLLIBS = -L/usr/lib -lssl -lcrypto

Change that to

   SSLLIBS = -L/usr/lib -lssl -lcrypto -ldl





Regards,

Henrik

New installation of Xymon 4.3.21 on OpenSUSE 13.2.  Xymon won’t compile with SSL support even though I have OpenSSL and libopenssl-devel installed.  When I run “openssl version” it says OpenSSL 1.0.1k-fips.
Here is what I see when I run ./configure:  (note: I also tried running configure.server with –sslinclude and –ssllib).   When I run “openssl verions –a” I don’t see gcc listed under compiler.  I see “-I. –I.. –I../incluse –fPIC” etc.  I may have installed gcc after openssl, but gcc is installed.

Checking for OpenSSL ...

Warning: Cannot link with SSL library
OpenSSL include- or library-files not found.
Although you can use Xymon without OpenSSL, you will not
be able to run network tests of SSL-enabled services, e.g. https.
So installing OpenSSL is recommended.
OpenSSL can be found at http://www.openssl.org/

If you have OpenSSL installed, use the "--sslinclude DIR" and "--ssllib DIR"
options to configure to specify where they are.
