Configure: error: Curl library not found on centos 7

Question

I want to install zabbix 2.4.5, but when I type:

./configure --enable-server --enable-agent --with-mysql --enable-ipv6 --with-net-snmp --with-libcurl --with-libxml2

I get some problem:

Configure: error: Curl library not found

[root@pc-bello zabbix-2.4.5]# rpm -qa | grep curl
libcurl-7.29.0-35.el7.centos.x86_64
curl-7.29.0-35.el7.centos.x86_64
python-pycurl-7.19.0-19.el7.x86_64

Can you help me solve this problem?

Why are you trying to install an old version of Zabbix from source? — Michael Hampton, Feb 19 '17 at 07:20

this is not the latest version? i read in google, zabbix-2.4.5 is the latest version — Bello, Feb 19 '17 at 07:30
Obviously you were reading the wrong site. Go to the official site and you will learn the latest version. Then just install it from EPEL. — Michael Hampton, Feb 19 '17 at 07:32

Well, to answer your implicit question, you also would have to install the -devel packages of curl to compile Zabbix on your own.

yum install libcurl-devel

It might be that there are more -devel packages needed.

But if you just want to install Zabbix, use the EPEL repository or even better use the repository of Zabbix directly. Follow the install manual here to add the repository. Then follow the manual.
