I'm trying to install monit on linux. I ran the following commands : 

wget http://mmonit.com/monit/dist/monit-5.5.tar.gz
tar zxvf monit-5.5.tar.gz
cd monit-5.5
./configure

and when i try : 

make && make install

I get : 

make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.

monit-5.5 directory contains the following : 

$ ls
CHANGES      Makefile.in  bootstrap   configure     doc       monitrc
COPYING      README       config      configure.ac  libmonit  src
Makefile.am  aclocal.m4   config.log  contrib       monit.1

don't know what's the problem. thank you for your help.

Thank you very much, you were right, the problem was I didn't have pam and ssl headers installed So what I did that solved the problem : 

sudo -s
sudo yum install pam-devel
sudo yum install openssl-devel
sudo yum update (probably not necessary but to be on the sife side)

then, I had problems with the monitrc file so i copied it to ~ and 

chmod 0700 ~/.monitrc

In Ubuntu, using apt-get, the library names differs a bit: sudo apt-get install libpam0g-dev and sudo apt-get install libssl-dev – Gravedigger
more on ubuntu, I needed these in there to point to a few things: ./configure --prefix=/usr/sbin --bindir=/usr/sbin --sysconfdir=/etc/monit/ --with-ssl-lib-dir=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu – Derogate

I ended up to this question trying to figure out the same issue on Debian. So here is what I needed to do to get it working on Debian.

#Install dependencies and required tools
sudo apt-get install libssl-dev libpam0g-dev gcc make 

# CHECK LATEST MONIT VERSION http://mmonit.com/monit/dist/
wget http://mmonit.com/monit/dist/monit-5.12.2.tar.gz
tar xzvf monit-5.12.2.tar.gz
cd monit-5.12.2/
sudo ./configure --prefix=/usr/sbin --bindir=/usr/sbin --sysconfdir=/etc/monit/
sudo make
sudo make install

I needed to install libssl-dev and libpam0g-dev to make it work. I also added some options to configure to make it match the usual locations.

Make sure that you have installed all of the required dependencies needed to build Monit. After some research I couldn't turn up what they are, but they are probably in the documentation. Of course, after you get that figured out, re-extract the tar archive to refresh the contents of the directory.

@user1103897 configure: error: PAM enabled but headers or library not found, install the PAM development support or run configure --without-pam The above line is important. Google search for info on how to install the PAM development headers for your distro. – Step

You should install the correct libraries for pam and readline: The PAM libraries are needed for the PAM plugin.

On the Centos and RHEL -build VMs, install the pam-devel package:

sudo yum install pam-devel

On all the Debian/Ubuntu -build virtual machines, install libpam0g-dev:

sudo apt-get install libpam0g-dev

On debian6/maverick/natty, install libreadline5-dev (replacing any libreadline6-dev already there):

sudo apt-get install libreadline5-dev

On oneiric (and any newer, eg. Debian 7 or Ubuntu 12.04), the package is called libreadline-gplv2-dev:

sudo apt-get install libreadline-gplv2-dev
