there are several things to edit and make compatible too.

as mentioned in the board, -D is not supported in bsd, just -d

Also think of this howto:

just wanted to file an issue with the install -D parameter
for me not even -d works, the error message says

[root@maro /home/maco/dl/icinga-1.0.1]# make install-webconf
/usr/bin/install -c -d -m 644 sample-config/httpd.conf /usr/local/etc/apache22/Includes//icinga.conf
install: sample-config/httpd.conf exists but is not a directory

***** Error code 71

Stop in /home/maco/dl/icinga-1.0.1.

also libraries need to be properly set-up on command line:
--with-gd-lib=/usr/local/lib/ --with-gd-inc=/usr/local/include/

this is FreeBSD 7.2

I can probably compile a list of issues with FreeBSD 7.2 easily - have no experience with creating ports on FreeBSD but I might be interesed in learning it for the case

The lines starting on line 322 in Makegile.in can be changed to the following to work around the -D problem:

install-webconf: mkdir -m 755 -p $(DESTDIR)$(HTTPD_CONF) $(INSTALL) -m 644 sample-config/httpd.conf $(DESTDIR)$(HTTPD_CONF)/icinga.conf

I'm trying to write a port at the moment:
http://github.com/telephono/freebsd-port-icinga

But I still have to look into the suggested patches (without knowing much C...)

Current status of http://github.com/telephono/freebsd-port-icinga

• integrated all patches from nagios port
• port builds, installs & runs fine using the existing nagios user & group (still need to register new icinga user and group in /usr/ports/UID & /usr/ports/GID)
• options for IDOutils with MySQL and PostgreSQL
• IDOutils with MySQL backend works
• IDOutils with PostgreSQL doesn't work (no connection to PostgreSQL 8.4 & 9.0, string escape warnings with 8.0)
  > Are there any working setups with IDOutils and PostgreSQL?

Hopefully I will find the time to create a port of Icinga next week...

If anyone has already done so, please reply to this Thread.

Please have a look at https://github.com/telephono/freebsd-port-icinga
It should be almost complete (besides from committing to the FreeBSD ports folks).

• File added icinga-1.0.3.shar
• Done % changed from 0 to 10

Thank you!

I made some basic version of the port in September (1.0.3).

Attached is a shar file of it. You need to bump the autoconf version however from
USE_AUTOTOOLS= autoconf:262 libltdl:22 to the most recent one.

Perhaps we can merge our ports, then I can commit it to the ports tree.

telephono told me something about the different thread handling in BSD witch slows Icinga down compared to linux.

Can one of you have a look into it, please?

in some ways, ltdl(.h) is not used/found in /usr/local/include (report from today). is this already marked as needed dependency for a ports build or am i getting something wrong here?
