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

The script that failed was: './0-yum'
[Administrator@chi-compaq nagiosxi]$
[Administrator@chi-compaq nagiosxi]$

Lets try running ./fullinstall again. If we get the same error we are going to have to investigate some files on the system...

the problem pertains to this line in the install log It is possible that something else was locking it.

You are installing as root right?

@scottwilkersonran ./fullinstall and got the same error.
Thanks

You are running this as root correct?

Can I have you post the results when you run

@scottwilkerson I wasn't running as root. I went ahead and ran as root and got past this error. Thanks. I did come up with a different error:

Error: Cannot retrieve metalink for repository: epel. Please verify its path and try again
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, refresh-packagekit, security
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
Error: Cannot retrieve metalink for repository: epel. Please verify its path and try again

INSTALLATION ERROR!


Let me know if I need to start a new thread..

thanks

Ok I found the thread http://support.nagios.com/forum/viewtop ... ink#p20070 that addressed the Error I mentioned above. Thanks

I have another error that came up while running ./fullinstall

ERROR: Nagios Plugins install appears to have failed - exiting. Missing file = /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_ping
ERROR: Subcomponent 'nagiosplugins' installation failed - exiting.
Subcomponents installation failed - exiting
RESULT=1

I browsed to /usr/local/nagios/libexec and noticed that check_ping was not in the folder. How do I get it?

Thanks

It is possible that curl is not installed. Try:
Then run the installer again.
