Urgent: syslog-ng v3.4.8 issue on AIX 5.3 about syslog-ng

[algernon]

Not sure I can help with this, as I have no clue about the AIX linker. The syslog-ng OSE build system assumes there is either a GNU linker, or a compatible one. I do not have the resources to figure out a solution, I'm afraid.

[lojha]

somehow fix above error by removing --whole-archive/--no-whole-archive arguments from configure file as suggested in

https://lists.balabit.hu/pipermail/syslog-ng/2011-September/017385.html

But this time gmake failed with

Hm... the easiest would perhaps be to compile ivykis separately, as a shared library, and use --with-ivykis=system when configuring syslog-ng. That way the ivykis symbols won't need to be exported from libsyslog-ng.

Mind you... for some odd reason, I don't see any ivykis things being linked, even though that should happen when using the internal copy, as far as I see things.

[lojha]

compiled and installed with flag --with-ivykis=system. Not sure why i am getting below warnings ???

Any way to avoid warning 'Plugin module not found in 'module-path' ??

the filename that syslog-ng tries to load is odd. it should probably be
libXXXX.so, but instead it is just "XXXX."

That filename is created with the gmodule API provided by Glib. How did you
get your compiled glib? what's the version number?

AFAIK the PE guys within BalaBit had lots of trouble to get AIX supported.
Most of their stuff has been integrated by now to OSE, but they compile the
entire stack themselves.

The code in question is in plugin.c, plugin_dlopen_module(). It's a
screenful of code, that basically asks g_module_build_path() about the
module name, and then tries to locate the .la or .a files right next to the
.so, and then handles that over to g_module_open()

Try to modify the code so that you point syslog-ng to the installed .so
files, and it will probably work.

Hope this helps,
Bazsi

Thanks for your prompt reply!

I have compiled glib version glib-2.16.5 from source ...is there any other way to avoiding these warnings without modifying code ??

[bazsi]

I doubt syslog-ng would actually work with those warnings present. Does it?

@lojha did syslog-ng work with those warnings?

[ihrwein]

@lojha Any update?

@lojha I'm closing this issue, as it is 1.5 years old without any reply. If you encounter this problem again, you can always reopen the issue.
