package centos-release is not installed

[scottwilkerson]

It is possible we don't have curl...

Try

Code: Select all

yum install curl -y
cd /tmp/nagiosxi
./fullinstall

[rsanclim]

I ran that, it downloaded the package....I rebooted, but still got the same error:

Running './0-yum'...
Configuring Yum...
package centos-release is not installed

I'm not sure why this is happening, but I want to help you get past it, lets run the following

Code: Select all

cd /tmp
curl -L -O http://pkgs.repoforge.org/rpmforge-release/rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el6.rf.x86_64.rpm
rpm -Uvh rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el6.rf.x86_64.rpm
rm rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el6.rf.x86_64.rpm
cd /tmp/nagiosxi
./fullinstall

[rsanclim]

I got a little further this time.

[scottwilkerson]

Sorry about that, there is one more of these,

Code: Select all

cd /tmp
curl -L -O http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-5.noarch.rpm
rpm -Uvh epel-release-6-5.noarch.rpm
rm epel-release-6-5.noarch.rpm
cd /tmp/nagiosxi
./fullinstall

[rsanclim]

I am really at a loss why your system cannot reach these URL's, I can click the links in your last post and get the URLS..

Is this a proxy setup?

If so, did you edit your yum setup as outlined here?

[rsanclim]

I did set the proxy, but still no luck. I am now reinstalling the OS.

[rsanclim]

I reinstalled OS. Registered the server. Set the proxies. Installed php-pear. Installed curl and the other 2 packages. Ran the fullinstall and got this far:

Nagios XI Full Installer
========================
This script will do a complete install of Nagios XI by executing all necessary
sub-scripts.

IMPORTANT: This script should only be used on a 'clean' install of CentOS or RedHat.
Do NOT use this on a system that has been tasked with other purposes or has an existing
install of Nagios Core. To create such a clean install you should have selected ONLY
the 'Base' package in the OS installer.

For whatever reason, it seems that the Yum proxy setup is what is failing. When we worked on it yesterday, you could download through the proxy fine using wget, but Yum was failing to load the repo data..
