[Xymon] Not able to access Xymon GUI

[Shankar Shiva]

Yep, I did that by giving 755 permissions. May I know if the below error
are cause of issye:-
*Checking for C-ARES library ...*
*test-cares.c:5:18: fatal error: ares.h: No such file or directory*
* #include <ares.h>*
*                  ^*
*compilation terminated.*
*make: *** [test-compile] Error 1*
*ERROR: Cannot compile using c-ares library.*
*The system C-ARES library is missing or not usable. I will use the version
shipped with Xymon*


*Checking for RRDtool ...*
*Not RRDtool 1.0.x, checking for 1.2.x*
*test-rrd.c:3:17: fatal error: rrd.h: No such file or directory*
* #include <rrd.h>*
*                 ^*
*compilation terminated.*
*make: *** [test-compile] Error 1*
*ERROR: Cannot compile with RRDtool.*
*ERROR: Linking with RRDtool fails*
*RRDtool include- or library-files not found.*

Any chance to help me with the root cause of issue and steps I can resolve??

Kindly, note that I had installed rrdtool-1.4.8-9.el7.x86_64.rpm package.
