make tcpflood throws error

问题

I am following this link ( http://www.rsyslog.com/how-to-use-tcpflood/ ) to send messages to rsyslog.

I have cloned the git repository of rsyslog https://github.com/rsyslog/rsyslog.git

While following the link http://www.rsyslog.com/how-to-use-tcpflood/ , I am getting below error while executing "make tcpflood"

root1@atratus06:~/Debashish/rsyslog/tests$ make tcpflood

cc     tcpflood.c   -o tcpflood
tcpflood.c:86:20: fatal error: config.h: No such file or directory
 #include "config.h"
                ^
compilation terminated.
make: *** [tcpflood] Error 1

Can you please help me with the error, your help will be really appreciated.

回答1:

I had the same problem. Solution (or rather workaround) was to compile rsyslog... Just go one directory up, and type:

./configure (you will need to probably install lot of missing stuff here...)

make

make install

After successfully completing all those actions you can go to 'tests' directory and once again type 'make tcpflood'. This time it will work.
