[root@linuxhelp netdata]# ./netdata-installer.sh

Sorry! NetData failed to build...

You many need to check these:

1. The package uuid-dev (or libuuid-devel) has to be installed.

If your system cannot find libuuid, although it is installed
run me with the option: --libs-are-really-here

2. The package zlib1g-dev (or zlib-devel) has to be installed.

If your system cannot find zlib, although it is installed
run me with the option: --libs-are-really-here

3. You need basic build tools installed, like:

gcc make autoconf automake pkg-config

Autoconf version 2.60 or higher is required.

If you still cannot get it to build, ask for help at github:

https://github.com/firehol/netdata/issues

If you get error like mentioned above we need to install one more package to resolve this error. Run the below command to install the required package.

[root@linuxhelp netdata]# yum install libuuid-devel -y

Good post. I installed on a RedHat Linux server. When I start the service, I see the following message.

I cannot connect from a browser when I tried http://linux-hostname:1999
Can you please suggest?

A

It seems that it couldn’t bind on IPv6 port due to firewall restrictions, I suggest you check your firewall rules and open port 19999 on a firewall or open it for IPv4.
