I am struggling to get the Perl modules build and installed so that I can work
with mib2c to work on custom MIBs. I compiled version 5.7.3 using the VC
instructions, linking to external OpenSSL. It took a bit of work, but thinks
finally worked and I have verified that things are working by walking the
system MIB with a SNMPv3 user, using authPriv for security.
I am following the instructions provided in the perl\SNMP README. It states I
need to have built both static and dynamic versions of netsnmp, I have done
that.
It states I need to download gnu_rexex.exe from a site that is provided. Here
is the first problem, that file is apparently corrupted, and won't unzip.
There are other instances of people online encountering the same problems. I
instead downloaded regex 2.7, and followed the same instructions. There are
differences in the names of files, and perhaps this is the problem.
Specifically, the instructions state:
1. Copy regex.h to VC\include in my case, I am using Visual Studio 2013,
so I copied regex.h to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio
12.0\VC\include
2. Copy gnu_regex.lib to VC\lib. There is no gnu_regex.lib in regex 2.7,
there is a regex.lib, and I copied this to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft
Visual Studio 12.0\VC\lib
3. Copy gnu_regex.dll to System32. There is no gnu_regex.dll in regex
2.7, but there is a regex2.dll in the bin directory of 2.7, I copied this to my
system32 folder
The next steps set up the environment in a command window, and I invoke
win32\nmakeperl.bat. This provides a lot of information as it works its way
through, I eventually get to a line that states:
Make the Perl SNMP modules.
to undefined at C:/Perl/lib/ExtUtils/Install.pm line 1198.
NMAKE: fatal error U1077
The README states I should check the nmake.out file, which I do, it is empty
Bottom line, the Perl modules don't install and I am unable to use the various
tools that require that they be installed. Any help at all is greatly
appreciated.
In case it is needed, I am running Windows 7 Pro x64. I tried to build a 64
bit version of NetSNMP, but that had so many problems that I gave up and built
a 32 bit version, which worked...until I tried to build the Perl modules that
is.
Thanks,
Ray Purvis
