Installation error RHEL 5 64-Bit
Posted: Mon Jul 14, 2014 11:31 pm
I think we found the issue with CPU spikes and got my hand on a new system so I could start over.(I'll report on CPU spikes soon)
However, when installing on RHEL 5 64bit I am running into issues. Here is the interesting part of the install log:
I don't know if this part matters, but this is there too:
Any hints? I think the problem is happening because nagios user already exists due to we sync ppk's. It isn't creating the mysql user or the postgres user though, where ever that is supposed to happen.
Edit: Yeah, all my issues are related to useradd and groupadd not existing. I have luseradd and lgroupadd instead and copying them to the other filenames don't seem to make it work. Also, mysql and postgresql installs are not working well. postgresql is tryign to install old 8.1 version and not sure about mysql.
EDIT2: AHHHH So easy to get past. I did a yum reinstall shadow-utils and it installed the missing utils and install is proceeding much further
