[ramprasad1211]

Hi frnds,

   Iam a new bie to the syslog-ng.

I downloaded eventlog-0.2.7.tar.gz and syslog-ng-2.0.8.tar.gz.

I did untar eventlog tar file,executed the steps , ./configure,make,make install.

After I did untar syslog-ng, and execute ./configure command,with out any options.

Iam getting following error. Please let me know what am I doing wrong?

I have both untarred directories under root, i.e /root/eventlog  and /root/syslog-ng.

I tried setting the variable "PKG_CONFIG_PATH" to "/root/eventlog", but then it gives out some other error.

Please help me in resolving this.

And also let me know any other place to download syslog-ng,if you feel I might be using some other files.
I downloaded for balabit.com.

Iam using Redhat Linux 3.2.2

I got the above problem resolved,after setting the enviraonment variable PKG_CONFIG_PATH to "/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/", But now I got different error.

When I do "make" in syslog-ng directory....
