I am trying to install a Zabbix monitoring system on my Ubuntu. But when I try to install it. I get this error:

The following have unmet dependencies:
 zabbix-server-mysql : Depends: libsnmp15 (>= 5.4.3~dfsg) but it is no installable
                       Reccomends snmptt but it is not going to be installed
Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

I already tried:

apt-get update -f
apt-get install snmpd -f

but nothing seems to work, anyone has a solution for me? Thanks

  • Were you able to find a solution? I'm also wrestling with this issue...

  • No I am sorry, didn't find any solution :s Dec 31, 2013 at 17:59
  • I found a solution that may work for you...this issue arises in Ubuntu 13.10, but Zabbix 2.2 is supported in Ubuntu 12.04. If you try installing in a stock Ubuntu 12.04, you will not have this error (I just verified this).

Starting from a stock Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS install, Zabbix can be installed in the following way:

From the Zabbix 2.2 documentation:

wget http://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/2.2/ubuntu/pool/main/z/zabbix-release/zabbix-release_2.2-1+precise_all.deb
dpkg -i zabbix-release_2.2-1+precise_all.deb
apt-get update

then, to install the server and web frontend:

apt-get install zabbix-server-mysql zabbix-frontend-php

to install the Zabbix agent only:

apt-get install zabbix-agent
0

at first delete zabbix.list

sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/zabbix.list

and then run commands from in documentation (Answer Y or I when you run dpkg -i .....):

# wget http://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/2.2/ubuntu/pool/main/z/zabbix-release/zabbix-release_2.2-1+precise_all.deb
# sudo dpkg -i zabbix-release_2.2-1+precise_all.deb
# sudo apt-get update

    If you are going to answer an old question, you might go so far as to edit and update the answer with the current version, rather than simply copying a previous answer.
