NagiosXI offline installation dependencies

Post by Backendsupport »

Hello, I'm trying to install Nagios 5.7.4. on a centos 7 system. This is a isolated system with no internet connection. I connected centos 7 dvd as a local repo. Fullinstall fails because of missing dependencies. What additional packages do I need to install and from what offline source to perform the offline installation?

Thanks in advance

Hi

I believe this document will cover it from the Linux side:
https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... onment.pdf

There is a portion of the install script that uses cpanm to install some perl modules. The modules are included
as part of the install tarball, but if I remember right cpanm might still try to reach out to it's archives on the internet
first, and then when that times out it will use the local modules from the tarball. The wait time for the timeout used
to be very lengthy, I am not sure if the install script has been updated to change this behavior or not. You can

Code: Select all

tail -f /tmp/nagiosxi/install.log
to check the progress.

Thanks
