Please look at the install.log file. I had tried and clean my VM but keep hitting different kind of errors. I am installing RHEL7 (3.10.0-1062.12.1.el7.x86_64).

I am installing RHEL7 (3.10.0-1062.12.1.el7.x86_64).

In the install log it says that you are using RHEL 6... Can you elaborate?

Is this a clean system (minimal, "vanilla" install)? If seems like you had mysql already installed on this server...

Is your server connected to the Internet? Are you using a proxy? Are you using custom/local repos?

What is the output of the command below?

Here is the output for yum -repolist -v

You are using rackspace repos, so it's possible there's special sets of packages in there. The installer is tested against a clean, minimal install CentOS system. What you can do is try running the installer on a clean system with no other programs installed, e.g. mysql, apache, etc.

Why are you trying to install Nagios XI 5.6.4? The latest version is 5.6.12... There are many bug fixes and enhancements since 5.6.4. See the changelog here:

https://www.nagios.com/downloads/nagios-xi/change-log/

I am not sure it trying to install Nagios XI 5.6.4 as you said when I just run the ./fullinstall. Please see the rpm from ll command. I aslo have rackspace disable their repo and run the installation again. I will keep you post.

Is this a clean system (minimal, "vanilla" install) with nothing else installed on it? Run the following command and show the output:
Is this an offline install (is your server connected to the Internet)? Are you using a proxy?

After I rekicked my VMs clean start. Here is the new error: SNMP failed to start. Please see attach install.log Thanks.

Can you run the command below and show the output?

Hmm, it's strange that the snmptrapd service wouldn't start. Is there anything else listening on port 162? Can you run the following command and show the output?
Also, have you modified by chance the service from the "default"? What is the output of the command below?
