syslog-ng v3.4.8 issue on solaris sparc 8 about syslog-ng HOT 6 CLOSED

Can you try adding this line to the top of lib/logsource.c, below all the #include lines?

#ifndef CLOCK_MONOTONIC
#define CLOCK_MONOTONIC CLOCK_REALTIME
#endif

from syslog-ng.

Thanks a lot for your quick response !!

That fixed the issue related to 'CLOCK_MONOTONIC'. but again it failed with below errors:

To get a workaround related to 'ntohll' added file 'modules/afamqp/rabbitmq-c/librabbitmq/amqp_private.h' as suggested in

http://lists.rabbitmq.com/pipermail/rabbitmq-discuss/2012-October/023165.html

#if defined(__sparc)
#define ntohll(x) (x)
#define htonll(x) (x)
#endif

that fixed complaining about 'ntohll' and 'htonll' but again failed with:

from syslog-ng.

That can also be fixed with forcing an -lsocket when linking librabbitmq-c, but... if you don't need the amqp destination, you can turn it off entirely with --disable-amqp passed to configure, and all of the above mess could be avoided that way.

If you need the amqp destination... well, the fix is a little bit more involved in that case.

from syslog-ng.

what could be the fix......is it just commenting the line of code which has referenced symbol names??

for eg...if I comment line number 121 in amqp_socket.c....it is not complaining about this sysmbol.

amqp_send_header': /export/syslog/syslog-ng-3.4.8/modules/afamqp/rabbitmq-c/librabbitmq/amqp_socket.c:121: undefined reference tosend'

Also is it safe if we do modify the code like this way? will it impact any of syslog functionality ?

from syslog-ng.

If you want to be able to send to an AMQP broker, then yes, modifying the code this way would break that functionality. If not, it is easier to use --disable-amqp. The problem is that on Solaris, if you use network functions like socket, you need to link with -lsocket. The rabbitmq-c library syslog-ng bundles does not do that, hence your issues. Fixing that is a little bit problematic, as rabbitmq-c is not under our control.

Disabling AMQP will not impact the normal syslog functionality, though, so that's the easiest way.

Another way is to edit modules/afamqp/rabbitmq-c/Makefile.am, and add a line like AM_LDFLAGS = -lsocket -lnsl to it.

Thank you for prompt replies and solution
