The linkage messages about gd* mean that gd-1.8.3 isn't being built properly
so it can be linked against.

The messages

Do not forget to build:

1. gd-1.8.3/libpng-1.2.1
2. zlib-1.1.4/

Are in the ./configure which is one of the steps that ./buildAll.sh
executes.

The message re make install is a bad idea.  There are really NO
circumstances I'm aware of where you SHOULD install - that defeats the
purpose of having known stable versions statically linked to ntop.



If you read buildAll.sh it does:

./configure in gdchart0.94c

./configure and make in zlib-1.1.4

make in libpng-1.2.4

make in gdchart0.94c (which does the make in gd-1.8.3 automatically)

(At least that's the current version, the 2.1.3, IIRC is simpler but very
similar).


If you read the back traffic, there are known problems with libpng
versions - if you have 1.0.x installed and compile ntop against 1.2.x.  I
wonder if you already have gdchart installed??

* cd into the gd-1.8.3 directory and EXPLICITLY do the make ahead of any
other make - maybe it's a sequence.

* If you have gd and/or gdchart installed via rpm or whatever, try
uninstalling them.

* Otherwise, try NOT using the gdchart in the ntop tree and using the
preinstalled binaries.  You may have to set some --with- variables to tell
ntop where to find the libraries/headers.  ./configure --help will show you
what you can set.

* Try using the latest development snapshot.

Hi,

I did a 'make clean' for both ntop and gdchart and ran 'buildAll.sh' over
again.
I checked for errors but didnt see any.      I've got the output attached in
an ascii file.
The only thing I noticed of any interest  was the message:


Do not forget to build:
1. gd-1.8.3/libpng-1.2.1
2. zlib-1.1.4/


But it looks like buildAll.sh does that for me anyways.
I ran the 'make installs' for all THREE packages (zlib, libpng and gd-1.8.3)
I am still getting the same error(see bottom).


Could you tell me what in particular I am missing?
Could it be the libntopreport.so needs to be updated?
Or is it trying to find these 'gdImage*' type files and they just aren't
there?


thanks again,


Rich




 <<buildAll.txt>>









That's the right version...

It *sounds* like you don't have the library created.  All I can think is
that you missed an error message during the buildAll.sh step (just because
the script finished doesn't mean there wasn't an error up above - it's
stupid that way).

Subject: [Ntop] gdchart issues


 Hi,

I have downloaded ntop 2.1.3 with gdchart0.94c

AFAIK, I followed the build instructions for gdchart with no issue

I ran the autogen.sh program for ntop with no issue

I ran make with issue.

Here's the error I got, you've seen this before I am sure:

./.libs/libntopreport.so: undefined reference to `GDC_generate_gif'
./.libs/libntopreport.so: undefined reference to `gdImageCreateFromGif'
./.libs/libntopreport.so: undefined reference to `gdImageGif'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
gmake[2]: *** [ntop] Error 1
gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/tmp/install/ntop-2.1.3/ntop'
gmake[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/install/ntop-2.1.3/ntop'
gmake: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2


>From what I've read, the advice has always been to update the gdchart
download.

But, as you see, I am using gdchart0.94c,  isn't that the right version,
or is this the result of  another problem that I am not aware of?

thanks in adv. for any info on this,

Rich
