Upgrade failing for 2011 Upgrade

Post by [email protected] »

What version of Nagios XI are you using? Nagios XI 2009R1.1H
Linux Distribution and version? CentOS release 5.4
32 or 64bit? 32 bit
VMware Image or Manual Install of XI? vmware image

I am in the middle of upgrading from the version you see above to the 2011 version as recommended in a previous thread. The install has exited with the following error:

skipping: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/e ... noarch.rpm - transfer failed - unknown or unexpeted error

I suspect that the rpm is no longer there, but I am not sure where to access the necessary rpms if they are not there. Any help would be appreciated.

Actually, you should go straight to 2012.

It is highly likely that the old upgrade script in the 2011 tarball doesn't function any longer as it relied on external resources that have since been moved...
