Hi

I am premnath, we have 8 servers with centos 6.7 & 7.2

i have installed Nagios Log server in both versions while i run " fullinstall " scripts. It results with the Installation Error as shown below.

Error: exim conflicts with sendmail-8.14.7-4.el7.x86_64
You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

===================
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 Enterprises technical support.

The step that failed was: 'prereqs'


Can any one support me in this issue.

Are these clean, minimal systems built using the minimal CentOS ISO? Nagios Log Server must be installed on a clean, minimal version of CentOS / RHEL.

It appears the exim package is already installed on the "clean" system. Remove it first with "yum remove exim" and run the fullinstall script again.
