Having trouble installing

[BBoyer]

Hello, I am having trouble installing on my offline machine. The server I am using was going to be trashed so I decided to repurpose it for the use of Nagios XI. It is currently running RHEL 6 and only has MySQL on it. I followed the pdf instructions on how to install but I'm getting plenty of errors. I first went to https://repo.nagios.com to download the Nagios RPM Offline Tarballs and then I executed the code

Code: Select all

cd /tmp/rpms
tar xzf nagiosxi-4-2.6.el6.x86_64.tar.gz
cd nagiosxi
./fullinstall

but I get an error saying "Cannot retrieve repository metadata (respond.xml) for repository epel. Please verify its path and try again."

Also,
I have two tar files from Nagios on my server
1) nagiosxi-5-2.9.el6.x86_64.tar
2) xi-5.3.0.tar

I believe the second file is the nagios software and the first file is some repository for the offline version. I could be completely wrong though.

Need help! I'm trying to get this set up asap.

Also, my server isn't 100% wiped, but someone set up Nagios on another machine here that wasn't wiped either

As noted in the URL you referenced in the " Sample Offline Install/Upgrade Instructions" section, this should be your steps:

Also please note this text from the above section:

Offline server must still have access to CentOS Base Repo (actual or clone) for installation/upgrade

Code: Select all

mkdir -p /tmp/rpms
cd /tmp/rpms
rm -rf nagiosxi*
wget https://repo.nagios.com/nagiosxi-offline/nagiosxi-5-2.9.el6.x86_64.tar.gz
tar xzf nagiosxi*
cd nagiosxi
./fullinstall

Also 5.3.0 offline install isn't available yet so that is the tarball you should be using now.
xi-5.3.0.tar isn't something you should be using.
