upgrade to 3.0 - from 2.2.10

[curruscanis]

Hello, I am attempting to upgrade my Ubuntu linux ( Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS ) based NetXMS system from 2.2.10 to 3.0 

I have followed the upgrade instructions on the wiki, although it is out of date.

I have attempted the following...

Downloaded the new release and extracted it:
wget https://netxms.org/download/releases/3.0/netxms-3.0.2258.tar.gz

I then attempted to run the shell program:
sh ./configure --with-server --with-mysql

I get the following error:

....................

checking for sensors/sensors.h... no
checking curl/curl.h usability... no
checking curl/curl.h presence... no
checking for curl/curl.h... no
configure: error: libcurl is required. Check that it is installed or use --without-curl option
 

I do use the --without-curl option I get an error about SSL
.............
checking for sensors/sensors.h... no
checking libssh/libssh.h usability... no
checking libssh/libssh.h presence... no
checking for libssh/libssh.h... no
configure: error: libssh is required for SSH support. Check that it is installed or use --disable-ssh option

I do have Curl installed as well as SSH, I have confirmed this and dont' know why the install script is giving me these errors.

Please let me know if anyone has any advice...

Hi,

first of all I do recommend using precompiled deb packages instead of building form source. Information about repository is here: https://wiki.netxms.org/wiki/Using_APT_Repository

If you want to build server from source, you have to install the following packages:

libssl-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libexpat1-dev libsqlite3-dev libjansson-dev libssh-dev libmosquitto-dev libpcre3-dev libmysqlclient-dev

Best regards,
Victor

Thank you for that insight Victor, however this is the error that I get when I attempt the following:

apt-get update

..................
Reading package lists... Done

Do you have any further advice?

I think I got it I had a bad entry in my sources list with the NetXMS repository.
