Nagios Installation Error "WKHTMLX"

Post by MCShaBro »

Hi Guys,

Attempting to install Nagios XI on a IBM X3650 M2 with CentOS 5.1 x86_64 bit.
This is a fresh installation with all updates for the server completed prior.
Network configuration is set to dhcp at this stage.

Following the instructions from the Nagios website I receive the following error in the installation log:

'wkhtmltox-0.12.1-centos5-amd64.tar.xz' saved [15751108/15751108]
tar: this does not look like a tar archive
tar: skipping to next header
tar: archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers
tar: read 1988 bytes from wkhtmltox-0.12.1-centos5-amd64.tar.xz
tar: Error delayed from previous errors
ERROR: subcomponent 'wkhtmlx' installation failed - exiting.
Subcomponents installation failed - exiting

I have reviewed the log but can't seem to see any other errors.
Being a newcomer to Linux and Nagios your assistance is very much appreciated!

Thanks Shane

Can you try installing the package manually?

Code: Select all

cd /tmp/nagiosxi/subcomponents/wkhtmlx
./install
Then run the "./fullinstall" again.

So I completed as per your instructions and still could not download the file. I received the same error. I downloaded the RPM website and installed. All working ok.

Thanks for the quick response.

Excellent, so you were able to get through the fullinstall after the RPM installation?
