./fullinstall fails

[camelel]

Hi,

I've downloaded the Nagios XI in order to test if it fits my organization needs.
I've installed a fresh virtual machine with CentOS 6.5 (base) and placed the Nagios-XI.tar.gz in /opt folder, unzipped it and entered the unzip directory.
Next, I ran ./fullinstall
It started adding repositories to the machine and then exited with an error:

Code: Select all

Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * epel: mirror.prgmr.com
 * rpmforge: mirror.hmc.edu
No package centos-release-cr available.
Error: Nothing to do
RESULT=1

===================
INSTALLATION ERROR!
===================
Installation step failed - exiting.
Check for error messages in the install log (install.log).

I would appreciate your help with figuring this issue out.
The install.log file can be found here:

Thanks in advance,

Itai

A couple of things...

The error is indicating that you're having trouble connecting to the nagios repo, that is likely a network problem on your end:

Code: Select all

[jdalrymple@localhost yum.repos.d]$ curl http://repo.nagios.com/nagios/6/repodata/repomd.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<repomd xmlns="http://linux.duke.edu/metadata/repo" xmlns:rpm="http://linux.duke.edu/metadata/rpm">...

the other thing I just want to mention, the install should take place from /tmp, not /opt. Changing the location won't fix your problem, but it is recommended anyway.

Is it possible that the machine has no access to the Internet?

Hi,

If there was a network problem I would get an error but seems like a normal response:

Code: Select all

[root@nagiosv01 nagiosxi]# 

I moved the nagiosxi folder to /tmp .

Any other ideas?

Please try installing it manually then post the output:

Code: Select all

yum -y install centos-release-cr

If it installs fine, try running fullinstall again.

If it doesn't work then there may be an issue with your repos.

Please post the output of the following:

Code: Select all

yum repolist

Hi,

It seems like indeed there was a problem with one of the repo's, I've fixed that and manually installed centos-release-cr, then ran ./fullinstall again but it failed again on dependencies...
Link to the install.log:
http://pastebin.com/UsAiRm7H
I could probably start installing the required packages manually... but if there's a script then I prefer to use it.

Thanks

I installed the same release on a test CentOS machine to ensure that it is working properly. Below, I will post the exact commands that I ran in order to ensure a successful install.

CentOS information:

Code: Select all

uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Nov 22 03:15:09 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Minimal install

Commands:

Code: Select all

    1  cd /tmp
    2  sestatus
    3  setenforce 0
    4  yum install wget -y
    5  wget http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagiosxi/2014/xi-2014r2.6.tar.gz
    6  tar zxf xi-2014r2.6.tar.gz
    7  cd nagiosxi/
    8  ./fullinstall

If the same procedure does not work for you, it is likely a connectivity problem or an invalid CentOS machine.
