RE: Error trying to build cfengine

[Dennis, Richard]

What were the options you gave configure?

You may need to export
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.1/lib

Personally, I've done this, but also made it a static compile in the
Makefile(s).

Subject: Error trying to build cfengine


Hello all,


I am trying to install CFEngine-2.0.7p3 on a Red Hat 9 x86 machine.  The
configure script fails with the following error: 

checking for BerkeleyDB location... /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.1 checking
Berkeley DB Version... configure: error: This release of cfengine requires
BerkeleyDB 3.2 or later [root@rudd cfengine-2.0.7p3]# cd
/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.1


I do have the Berkeley DB RPM installed, but, just to be safe, I downloaded
the 4.1 sources and compiled/installed them as well.  

At this point, I am guessing that the error is misleading.  In looking at
the conf file, it appesr to be trying to compile something called conftest.c
and that´s failing, which seems to generate the error message.  There isn´t
a conftest.c file located in the cfengine distribution anywhere.  Could this
be causing the problem?

Again, apologies if this isn´t the correct e-mail addr to ask about
problems.  If it isn´t, can you please send me the correct e-mail addr and
I´ll repost there. 

Thanks,
