This is correct. Both 1.4.2 and 1.4.3 are completely broken on Solaris. See my bug report for reference: http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool-trac/ticket/271 You probably can use the older version 1.3.8 which is still available in the package archive: http://mirror.opencsw.org/opencsw/allpkgs/ http://mirror.opencsw.org/opencsw/allpkgs/rrdtool-1.3.8%2cREV%3d2009.05.19-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW.pkg.gz > So our setup is going to be > > 1) All db created on RHEL machines > 2) All DB collated on a Solaris 8 machine and graph is generated > > How do I fix this?

It may be possible to build a current rrdtool with limited dependencies. The current version uses cairo and glib2, and a current glib2 is almost impossible to build on Solaris 8 (and was still hard on Solaris 10). The last glib2 we have for Solaris 8 is 2.23.5 which may or may not be recent enough. However, doing all this probably takes a day to do and I have doubts the time is well spent on Solaris 8. The build recipe and patches are fully open, if you are interested is rebuilding it for Solaris 8 I can give you OpenCSW buildfarm access where there are still Solaris 8 build machines with different compilers available: http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/gar/browser/csw/mgar/pkg/rrdtool/trunk/Makefile http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/gar/browser/csw/mgar/pkg/rrdtool/trunk/files/ Is there any reason why you just can't update to Solaris 10?
