[collectd] Unable to load Plugin amqp -- cannot find dependency librabbitmq.so

[Anna Shen]

Hi there,

I am pretty new to collectd and have carefully read collectd official FAQ
and spent significant time over internet for possible solutions and have
tried all of them. I still cannot find a working solution.

I am trying to configure the collectd so that it can collects metrics data
and publish them to an external rabbitmq server.  I found amqp plugin and
did the following:

1. install collectd from https://github.com/octo/collectd.git
2. *install rabbitmq from https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-c
3. re-configure /opt/collectd/etc/collectd.conf by un-commenting amqp
plugin body
4. ./configure
5. restart collectd by execute "/opt/collectd/sbin/collectd"

all went well until i hit 5. I got the following error message:

*
*root at server-32615:~# /opt/collectd/sbin/collectd*
*ERROR: lt_dlopen ("/opt/collectd/lib/collectd/amqp.so") failed: file not
found. The most common cause for this problem are missing dependencies. Use
ldd(1) to check the dependencies of the plugin / shared object.*

I did make a symbolic link for librabbitmq, see below:

for the librabbitmq.so file I copied from /usr/local/bin


I just do not understand why collectd cannot recognize librabbitmq.so

by the way, i tried install collectd 5.0.1 from .tar,  and collectd 4.x.x
using apt tool, no luck either... by the way, the collectd from the git
source i cloned has a version tag 5.0.0, something wrong?

Can someone please help me figuring out what is missing from the picture.
Thank you so much .

Anna
