HI arv,

Welcome to the Nagios Customer Forum!

Normally, that would indicate that there are applications installed and the server. Is this a clean (new), minimal installation?

Hi Benjamin

It is a clean server on AWS. Please check attachments , install log , repolist and linus release information

Thanks

Hi,

What is the output of the following command? I believe there is another application on this machine using php56, RHEL 7 would be using PHP 5.4. The install script uses the base packages provided by the operating system.

Code: Select all

rpm -qa | grep php

If this is a clean system, then remove PHP and run the installer again. If it fails, please post the install log once more.

Code: Select all

yum remove php*

Hi Benjamin

Had already tried the commands you mentioned...there are no phps installed. It seems like a pre-installation validation from the Nagios script (fullinstall)

Nonetheless , finally we were able to solve it by disabling the puppet5 and velocity-base repos

Thanks for following up on this

Thanks
