Apparently this log did not capture everything. Could you try reposting or make sure that it did capture the output where it failed please?

The installation I was trying to do also fails at installing python
It looks like the python installation needs X server?

Running 'python_modules'...
/usr/bin/easy_install: line 3: __requires__: command not found
import: unable to open X server `'.
/usr/bin/easy_install: line 5: from: command not found
/usr/bin/easy_install: line 8: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
/usr/bin/easy_install: line 8: ` sys.exit('

I was trying to install: nagiosna-2014r1.0.tar.gz


Best regards,
Rob Hassing

Easy_install certainly should not need any X libraries, nor should NNA to my knowledge. What OS, architecture, and version are you installing on? On this OS, do you have a gnome or kde frontend already?

X is not installed on this server, so there is no frontend installed as well.

How can I do an Easy_install?

[root@mona nagiosna]# find ./ -name "*instal*"
./fullinstall
./nagiosna/basedir/html/application/views/setup/install.php
./nagiosna/basedir/html/application/controllers/install.php
./libinstall.sh
[root@mona nagiosna]#

I can only find the fullinstall script.

I changed some packets, removed setuptools-0.7.2-7.el5.noarch.rpm and installed python-setuptools-0.6c5-2.el5

This got me a bit further, but still no full installation :-(


[root@mona-pool1 nagiosna]# ./fullinstall

This looks like a dns problem?
Can you ping (or in some other way reach) this machine?

I would agree pro100's issue appears to be dns\internet connection issues.

rhassing, we have determined that there are some rhel\cent 5.x issues on install that need to be resolved. This is being worked on as I type, some are our install issues, and some are dependencies that have been updated and do not play nice with python 2.4. We will post back with an update and resolve for you shortly.
