Yes. I’ll make a note in my todo list to do this for 1.8.

I appreciate the work you have done on this, is there any chance of a script for the new 1.8 version ?

The package location for the wget command is outdated as well, so I had to just download the file manually and edit the wget part out.

The script works nicely on the newest 1.6.6 version. Just edit the variable called ZBX_VER to read ZBX_VER=’1.6.6′ .

Thanks for the script.

Worked great with the most recent version 1.6.6, on an install of CentOS 5.3… minimal installation using a remote MySQL server/db

THANK YOU!!! Great time saver

Attention! If You will use this script, on CentOS 5.3 MINIMAL(!), first excute this command:
yum install patch make mysql-server
And all will be installed sucessfully

I see all the dependencies in the command above are all in the script except:
gcc-c++ libstdc++-devel make e2fsprogs-libs glibc-devel

I’m guessing one of these three caused my error before.

libstdc++-devel e2fsprogs-libs glibc-devel

Great script, thanks it still saves me a lot of time.

I did need to run the following to resolve some dependencies on Centos 5.2:

yum install gcc-c++ libstdc++-devel make mysql-devel curl-devel openssl-devel krb5-devel libgssapi-devel e2fsprogs-libs libidn-devel zlib-devel net-snmp-devel glibc-devel

It fixed this error:
checking for main in -lcurl… no
configure: error: Not found libcurl library
fail: Configure

I’m going to try to use the script to install the latest Zabbix release.

Thanks again,

Mikrodots
