Hello, binary is installed with 'make install' to /usr/local/sbin/voipmonitor

please read README_* (README_raspbian.md) there is described what to do after 'make instlall' to install default config and init scripts

as you can see its missing args, what am i missing?

I'm not sure what are you trying by 'make -c'

but to compile sniffer from sources and make service running: go to sources directory (cd /usr/src/sniffer) and run ./configure make make install

then you need to copy the voipmonitor.conf cp ./config/voipmonitor.conf /etc/

Then you put there the init script and force system to start the service at a boottime and start the service cp ./config/init.d/voipmonitor /etc/init.d/ systemctl enable voipmonitor systemctl start voipmonitor But before you start the service, make sure that you configured mysql options, sipport and interface options at least in /etc/voipmonitor.conf The service is logging to syslog facility (/var/log/syslog). (If service not starts, read there the reason.)

Oh thanks, I am getting closer there was a couple packages it needed for a successful config command

The following packages have unmet dependencies. libjson0-dev : Depends: libjson-c-dev (= 0.11-4ubuntu2.6) but 0.12.1-1.3ubuntu0.3 is to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

is the latest error.

ps please update readme file to include sudo apt install -y libpng-dev libgcrypt-dev libfftw3-dev libgoogle-perftools-dev unixodbc-dev libsnappy-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libjson0-dev

that isnt the final update but its what i have so far, im getting there slowely but surely!

any ideas on how to get around that last error?

[voipmonitor-petr]

Regarding broken dependencies in your installation of mintOS, I can recommend to make sure you have all packages updated there apt-get update apt upgrade

or use latest mint 21 where I didn't face any issues with dependencies when building sniffer.
