Your install log isn't complete... We will really need the complete install.log to diagnose the problem.

Is this machine registered with RedHat?

This is a much more descriptive file for us, thanks.

This is a known bug that will be fixed in the next release.

You can you open 0-yum and change the shebang line at the top from

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh -e
to

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
Then try run ./fullinstall again.

Thanks

OK, this is where my lack of LINUX experience will show.... Is 0yum a file? If so where is it located?

Sorry for not being clear.

Yes it is a file.

Code: Select all

cd /tmp/nagiosxi
vi ./0-yum
press i
move cursor to end of line
press backspace twice to remove -e
press Esc
type :wq
then

Code: Select all

./fullinstall
