I have an issue when installing the nrpe agent in Linux, and I have upload install.log as attached.
Basically below are the step to perform the installation and I do rename the repo file and try again but it still no success.

Unpack the installation archive you just downloaded:
tar xzf linux-nrpe-agent.tar.gz
Enter the newly created agent subdirectory:
./fullinstall


[root@host yum.repos.d]# ll
total 12
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 951 Oct 3 2017 epel.repoXXX
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1050 Oct 3 2017 epel-testing.repoXXX
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 358 Sep 13 16:23 redhat.repo
[root@host yum.repos.d]# mv redhat.repo redhat.repoXXX

[root@host tmp]# cd linux-nrpe-agent
[root@host linux-nrpe-agent]# ./fullinstall
Your system $PATH does not include /sbin and /usr/sbin. This is usually the result of installing GNOME rather than creating a clean system.
Adding /sbin and /usr/sbin to $PATH.

Is this system registered with RedHat? Can you install packages and update the system?

Run:

Code: Select all

yum update
and show the output.
