Solaris 10 - Nagios and GD Compile Issues
If you ever compile Nagios successfully on Solaris 10 (trust me, it’s a beast to get working properly), beware if you get the following errors:[Tue Jul 01 18:15:37 2008] [error] [client 192.168.0.100] ld.so.1: histogram.cgi: fatal
: libgd.so.2: open failed: No such file or directory, referer:

You likely haven’t compiled in support appropriately for GD and the JPEG, PNG, and other libraries. To check, issue a ldd statusmap.cgi and you may get the following output:[root]@nagiostest ~/nagios-3.0.3/cgi> (18:19:28 07/01/08)
:: ldd statusmap.cgi
libgd.so.2 => (file not found)
libiconv.so.2 => (file not found)
libpng12.so.0 => (file not found)
libjpeg.so.62 => (file not found)
libz.so => /usr/lib/libz.so
libm.so.2 => /lib/libm.so.2
librt.so.1 => /lib/librt.so.1
libc.so.1 => /lib/libc.so.1
libaio.so.1 => /lib/libaio.so.1
libmd.so.1 => /lib/libmd.so.1
Those files not found are not good. Please note that the following solution I am using Solaris 10 x86 on a Dell server. I use Blastwave for GNU package management on the Solaris server, which is installed in /opt/csw. I also have installed the Blastwave distributed libgd, libpng, jpeg, etc. packages necessary for this part of the compilation process.
Solution
Do the following:[root]@nagiostest ~/nagios-3.0.3> (18:24:05 07/01/08)
:: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/csw/lib:/usr/sfw/lib:/usr/lib
[root]@nagiostest ~/nagios-3.0.3> (18:24:36 07/01/08)
:: export LDFLAGS="-R/opt/csw/lib -R/usr/sfw/lib -R/usr/lib"
[root]@nagios ~/nagios-3.0.3> (18:25:14 07/01/08)
:: ./configure --prefix=/opt/nagios --with-nagios-user=nagios --with-nagios-group=nagios --with-command-group=nagioscm --with-gd-lib=/opt/csw/lib --with-gd-inc=/opt/csw/include
[SNIP]
root]@nagiostest ~/nagios-3.0.3> (18:26:21 07/01/08)
:: cd cgi/
[root]@nagiostest ~/nagios-3.0.3/cgi> (18:26:26 07/01/08)
:: make clean
rm -f avail.cgi cmd.cgi config.cgi extinfo.cgi history.cgi notifications.cgi outages.cgi showlog.cgi status.cgi statuswml.cgi summary.cgi tac.cgi statuswrl.cgi statusmap.cgi trends.cgi histogram.cgi
rm -f *.o core gmon.out
rm -f *~ *.*~
[root]@nagiostest ~/nagios-3.0.3/cgi> (18:26:27 07/01/08)
:: make
We can see that our CGI has the appropriate links we were looking for:[root]@nagios ~/nagios-3.0.3/cgi> (18:26:51 07/01/08)

Kudos go out to the Nagios FAQ for having this.
