Nagios Support Forum

So, following the https://support.nagios.com/kb/article/n ... n-495.html instructions, there is nothing that populates the /tmp/pipfiles directory..
Here is my output from running the instructions.. Are there updated instructions? We gave up on the upgrade as nothing worked, so we're trying to just install as new.



[root@nagios3 ~]# yum install -y python-pip openssh-clients wget
Loaded plugins: product-id, search-disabled-repos, subscription-manager

This system is not registered with an entitlement server. You can use subscription-manager to register.


You have enabled checking of packages via GPG keys. This is a good thing.
However, you do not have any GPG public keys installed. You need to download
the keys for packages you wish to install and install them.
You can do that by running the command:
rpm --import public.gpg.key


Alternatively you can specify the url to the key you would like to use
for a repository in the 'gpgkey' option in a repository section and yum
will install it for you.

For more information contact your distribution or package provider.

Thanks for the fast response, so that seemed to have worked, but now stuck on the offline server on the first install part using that same link...

I'll look to see what repo php is in, but we have the Base and EPEL like mentioned as prereq. DId we need optional on the offline as well?

can you list all the packages, dependencies etc needed? I'm not sure if we have room to put the entire 'optional' repo in that area. but we could easily just bring in php-devel and others it needs.

No package php-devel available.

That one is from updates repo on my system.

I do not have a list of them with all the required dependencies.

In the KB article at the top it says it under the Requirements section that you need access to them:
I think you only need these from epel:

Where do I get the gpg keys for wkhtmltox and ncpa? I see they are on your assets site, but I dont see the specific key.

Also, what OS/version does your LogServer OVA run?
