[Orca-users] Linux complation problem

[David Michaels]

Unless you have "prefix" defined in your login shell (unlikely), your 
references to $prefix (as in $prefix/html) is probaby interpreted as an 
empty string.  So, effectively, your configure line looks like this:

./configure --prefix=/opt/orca --with-html-dir=/html --with-var-dir=/var 
--with-rrd-dir=/rrd

I don't konw if that's necessarily causing your "make" problems, but you 
probably want to fix it anyway.  I'd recommend being explicit, since 
you're not sure where/when the $prefix will get evaluated:

./configure --prefix=/opt/orca --with-html-dir=/opt/orca/html 
--with-var-dir=/opt/orca/var --with-rrd-dir=/opt/orca/rrd

I think the default html, var, and rrd dirs are subdirectories of 
--prefix, so you may not even need to specify anything.  But, better to 
be explicit than ambiguous. :)

Good luck!
