Nagios Support Forum

I am running the Nagios Xi install on a newly built Redhat server - Linux 2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Nov 10 22:19:54 EST 2013 x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.5 (Santiago). During the install I had to copy the following files to the /tmp/nagiosxi/packages directory:

epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
nagios-repo-6-2.el6.noarch.rpm
rpmforge-release-0.5.3-1.el6.rf.x86_64.rpm

I then ran the install again. I am now receiving the following:

========================
Nagios XI Full Installer
========================

This script will do a complete install of Nagios XI by executing all necessary sub-scripts.

IMPORTANT: This script should only be used on a 'clean' install of CentOS or RedHat. Do NOT use this on a system that has been tasked with other purposes or has an existing install of
Nagios Core. To create such a clean install you should have selected ONLY the 'Base' package in the OS installer.

===================
INSTALLATION ERROR!
===================
Installation step failed - exiting.
Check for error messages in the install log (install.log).

If you require assistance in resolving the issue, please include install.log
in your communications with Nagios XI technical support.

The script that failed was: './1-prereqs'

There is no proxy issue with the server, it can get to the internet. The install log basically has the same information. How can I correct this problem?

Thanks!

The nagiosxi install directory should have a file named '1-prereqs' and that file should be executable. It would seem that's not the case on your box?

Correct. There is no file in the /tmp/nagiosxi directory called 1-prereqs. This is everything in the directory:

I did not delete anything from the directory either.

I performed the wget again, unzipped/tarred the file and the file is now present. The install is now running without any issues.

That's good to hear, is it ok if we mark this as resolved and lock the topic?
