> tar -xzvf openhpi-2.7.3.tar.gz
and use the standard Linux mechanisms:
> cd openhpi-2.7.3
> ./configure && make && make install
to install the software.
The following sections give some more detailed information on how to configure, compile
and install OpenHPI. For more information about OpenHPI please refer to the README files
that come with the OpenHPI package.
7.3.3.2 Configuring OpenHPI
By default simply calling './configure' will build all plugins that *can* be built, all other
plugins will be silently disabled. If you wish to disable a plugin, any flags you pass to
configure will be passed to the ‘configure’ program.
For communication between OpenHPI and the NAT-MCH at least the plugin 'ipmidirect'
must be enabled (this is the default in OpenHPI 2.7.3).
Please try
> ./configure --help
for more information on the options. Further configuration information can be obtained from
the README file provided in the openhpi-2.7.3 package.
7.3.3.3 Compiling OpenHPI
OpenHPI can be compiled by calling 'make'.
The official release of OpenHPI 2.7.3 contains a bug (that is fixed since 2.8.x versions):
./src/event.c:156: warning: `error' might be used uninitialized
this has to be fixed by replacing
int error;
by
int error = SA_OK;
in the file ‘./src/event.c’.
