Configure Error Unable To Find Rrd At /usr/local
Post #1 of 3 (13564 views) Permalink Unable to compile NTOP in FC5 I downloaded the latest NTOP via CVS. I am trying to compile the NTOP in a Fedora Core 5 OS. I used the autogen.sh to compile the NTOP. I am getting an error which I have no idea how-to fix it. Does anyone encounter this erro in FC5 and know how-to fix it? Thanks. ./autogen.sh configure: error: Unable to find RRD in the specified rrd 1.2.x directory paul at expsys Aug2,2006,12:54PM Post #2 of 3 (13438 views) Permalink Re: Unable to compile NTOP in FC5 [In reply to] Bryan, You first need to... Install latest version of rrdtool http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool/ You then need to run ntop "./configure --with-rrd-home=DIR" Usually /usr/local/rrdtool-1.2.x. OR cd /usr/local ln -s rrdtool-1.2.15 rrdtool This worked for me under FC5.

At some point during the ./configure phase of the install, I get this http://serverfault.com/questions/5099/problem-installing-ntop-on-freebsd-6-2 error message: configure: error: Unable to find RRD at /usr/local/rrdtool: please use --with-rrd-home=DIR I run which rrdtool and I get: /usr/local/bin/rrdtool ...so I run: ./configure --with-rrd-home=/usr/local/bin/rrdtool The installation continues, until it fails at the same spot, same error. I've tried a bunch of varying paths, like: `./configure --with-rrd-home=/usr/local/bin/` `./configure --with-rrd-home=/usr/local/bin` `[...]` `./configure --with-rrd-home=/usr` ... as I read in a suggestion while Googling the problem. If it matters, I don't have root access on this machine. It's a dedicated server at my web host. Any suggestions? freebsd rrdtool configuration ntop share|improve this question asked May 6 '09 at 0:58 Ian 72841828 add a comment| 4 Answers 4 active oldest votes up vote 7 down vote accepted Even better than all of the previous answers, why are you trying to install this by hand? The ports tree contains ntop: http://www.freshports.org/net/ntop/ So if you have the ports tree installed (if not, check the FreeBSD Handbook on using ports) The ports tree is an amazing feature for FreeBSD in that it does the dependency tracki
