Agent installation failed

Post by healthfusion »

Hello,

I am trying to install agent on the RHEL5 and it failed to install some sub-components. Installation log attached. Please let me know how can I troubleshoot this issue.

Thanks

Are you installing this on an existing nagios system? Presently it seems that the xinetd config cannot be read.

ls -lva /etc/xinetd.d/nrpe

Was nrpe already installed (from repos, etc) on this host before you ran the agent install?
Is xinetd installed correctly?
What is the contents of the directory:

Code: Select all

ls -la /etc/xinetd.d/

Try running the following command:

Code: Select all

yum install openssl-devel -y
then re-run the agent installer.

Hope this helps.
