Installation Bundle for Nrpe client on RHEL 7

Post by anish »

Hi,

I have to install nrpe client on few boxes that are sitting in segregated network, and I am looking for complete NRPE installation bundle, that contains all dependencies require to setup nrpe client.

Kindly share the required link, it would be really helpful.

Suggestions are also welcome.

Regards,
Anish

Thanks for the reply.

I followed these steps on RHEL 7 :

1. Download the Linux NRPE agent
2. cd /tmp
3. wget https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... ent.tar.gz
4. Unpack the installation archive you just downloaded:
tar xzf linux-nrpe-agent.tar.gz
5. Enter the newly created agent subdirectory:
cd linux-nrpe-agent
6. Run the wrapper script as root (if using Ubuntu you'll need to either run sudo -i to run as root or run the command with sudo in front):
./fullinstall

Now, i am getting error and i am stuck:

ERROR:

Code: Select all

===================
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' 
Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Can you post the entire "install.log"?
