Hello,

Has anyone got Heartbeat 1.2.5 (latest Heartbeat 1 version) to compile and run on CentOS 5?

I downloaded the source but hit difficulties compiling it, presumebly because it was never quite tweaked to run on the latest version.

Thanks,

Why not run heartbeat-2 from the centos extras repo. Heartbeat-2 will use heartbeat-1.x configuration files and should be compatible.

Ditto. It works a lot better, and there are RPMS available for it.

I'm trying heartbeat 1 after two weeks of getting nothing but core dumps and fialures from heartbeat 2 from the repository for the last two weeks, with a long thread of questions and no good answers on the linux-ha mailing list.

The setup I plan is very basic - a master/slave of two nodes only with DRBD. I suppose heartbeat 1 might be adequate for that.

What do you mean by "a lot better"? In what sense?

BTW - I found instructions for using "rpmbuild -ta ...tar.gz" and now need to complete the dependencies to make it install on CentOS 5.

Thanks,
