HOWTO: Install MRTG (FULLY AUTOMATED)

bronwerkz said:

My installation was completed but i am not sure whether it was installed. Anyway i visited the URL and all i see is the file listings and a file named core shown as a bomb. Anyway this is the message generated when i was trying to install.

Please advice. The server is running on a fedora core 3.

Adding MRTG to /etc/crontab...
Executing MRTG for the first time (you may see some warnings)...
./install.mrtg.sh: line 64: /usr/local/mrtg-2/bin/mrtg: No such file or directory
If you see warnings above, it is generally safe to ignore.

run:

./update.script CLEAN


It is likely that you do not have a recent/updated 'update.script' file and you are missing a path.
once you get the lastest and greatest, run the install again.

Script needs updating, MRTG URL has changed to:

http://oss.oetiker.ch/mrtg/pub/mrtg.tar.gz

Also, if script fails and you run it again, it will again add a cron line to /etc/crontab. So, at the end, check that it's a single mrtg line in that file.

** Ooops, one of many bad things happened:

a) You don't have the GD library installed.
Get it from http://www.boutell.com, compile it and
use either --with-gd-lib=DIR and --with-gd-inc=DIR to specify
its location. You might also have to use --with-z-inc,
--with-z-lib and --with-png-inc, --with-png-lib for gd
versions 1.6 and higher. Check config.log for more
information on the problem.

b) You have the GD library installed, but not the gd.h
header file. Download the source (see above) and use
--with-gd-inc=DIR to specify where the file can be found.

c) You have the library and the header file installed, but
you also have a shared GD library in the same directory.
Remove the shared library files and/or links (e.g.
libgd.so.2.0.0, libgd.so and libgd.so.2). This is especially
likely if you're using a recent (post 1.8.4) version of GD
and didn't configure it with --disable-shared.

d) You have gd library installed and also it's headers, but you are
missing libpng (and headers) or freetype (and headers)
(mrtg does not use freetype, but if your copy of gd is precompiled
against it, you have to install it ...

Consider following the instructions in doc/mrtg-unix-guide.txt
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
make: *** No rule to make target `install'. Stop.
